To celebrate 2 weeks of gainful employment and my first paycheck in 3 months, I finally got my iphone last night. I had been debating between the iphone and blackberry, and since my office runs macs and our calendaring email system is a mac-based system, the iphone seemed to make the most sense. And it's just cool.

I spent too much time last night loading it up with apps. Some not so useful, like the iglowstick, some moderately useful like urban spoon, the essentials like facebook and google mobile, and some that are just freakin' cool like Shazam (DH is pulling out his obscure music trying to defeat Shazam.)

Of course, there are plenty of law-related apps out there. I'm just not sure that I need the Rules of Evidence on my phone. Good to know there out there though.

iphone J.D. specializes in reviewing iphone apps for lawyers, and recently posted a list of reviews in one handy-dandy blog post.

This blog has also done a nice job reviewing quite a few apps for lawyers. The date calc app seems handy--but can it calculate the Monday following the expiration of 20 days? Oh wait--I found a legal deadline calculator specific to my state--woot!

So my phone is becoming all tricked out--now I just need to get the hang of the virtual keyboard.
