So I switched to Springpad and things were good for awhile... until a couple months ago, when I realized images saved here are also not available off-line. (I think there's some kinda time-limit: images are stored on the device for a few months, then purged.) Any suggestions, work-arounds, software alternatives greatly appreciated.


Someone mentioned Downcast; yes!! I listen to podcasts all the time; until recently I was using Podcaster, which was a source of constant frustration. Two weeks ago I installed Downcast and love it. (somewhat off-topic: to anyone interested in astronomy, earth science, or science in general: Astronomy Cast is excellent!)

mSecure- for keeping up with my various logins/passwords/passport #s, etc.

SleepMachine- ambient noise every night.

iBooks- Sure, Stanza was great, but now that it's gone I've not found anything close to iBooks. I just tried another one this morning--uBooks--and thereafter quickly deleted it from my iPhone. I hate iTunes as much as the next guy but see no alternative for now.


Oh, finally: SaiSuke. SaiSuke was my first calendar program, but I read so many good things about Calengoo--it gets better reviews than SaiSuke--I decided to try it out for a few months. I liked it fine, but SaiSuke's monthly view--with the daily task summary at the bottom--brought me back.
