I’ve had my iPhone 2.0 for just shy of two months now and I feel comfortable in telling you that I think it’s the best phone/PDA/pocket computer that I have ever owned. However, there are some things about it that irritate me and I feel that Apple missed the mark on.
After I tell you what I don’t like, I’ll tell some things that I really do like about it! Feel free to tell me if you agree or disagree!

If you do and you hate asking for directions, then this post is for you!

Quick look at 3 different applications for accessing your music library directly from mobile phone.
IMPORTANT: All listed services are FREE, however depending on your mobile plan data transfer fees may apply. I recommended that you contact your mobile carrier and find out about your ‘data transfer’ charges before going with any of the below listed music applications.
SimplifyMedia is a one of a kind application (Mac, Win) that lets you easily share your music library with friends and allow them to access and stream your tracks without leaving their iTunes player (screenshot). The best part about it is that it works even if you are NOT in the same network. You can also use it to access your own music library from other computers and most importantly from your iPhone or iPod Touch.
