    cant seem to find the free version of train times uk - which is a real shame

    Apologies. Although mine still works, the one I have seems to have been removed from the (old) market:

    http://uk.androlib.com/android.application.com-dg83-dgtraintimes-BmBF.aspx

    It was by a different developer from the paid for app - I'm thinking copyright issues over the name?

    No, it's that you (the developer) have to pay for the live information (when trains are departing).

    While it doesn't provide live information, for planning, DB Navigator is an excellent app and has many excellent features.

    Check Out Floating Images its a nice app that shows your pictures

    Seems like my list of apps a few pages back has been removed, I'm guessing its because of the referral link to dropbox.
    Whoever the moderator was of that post, I guess I slipped up and forgot the rules...sorry.
    Though I wish you had just removed the link (and sent me some sort of warning, so that I know why it happened) instead of removing the post since most of the apps in my post haven't been mentioned here and therefore only hurting the users of the forum.

    Skyfire browser - can view web pages the same as if viewing on a proper PC rather than the mobile version, very useful sometimes.
  • the bbc iplayer app is terrible comapred to beebplayer or myplayer which i still have, the words seem out of sync, and there is no download facility to watch streams offline later. However the major disadvantage over the other 2 is no 3g option only over wifi! If the 2 unoffcial apps can do it why cant the bbc!
  • its not free but a debt payoff planner by addonis is very good,

    I play alot of games by storm8 all free, and one called pocket empires that I'm addicted to lol

    the free playstation app is good

  • I would like to transfer photos from my pc onto my Orange SF. Is there an app that would assist with this, or can it not be done?

    Thanks

    Bluetooth (if the PC has it)

    Or plug the phone into the PC via USB cable and drag the pics to wherever you want them

    (The latter is what I do with my Desire)
