Before I start this review I should say that I’ve been quite satisfied with the stock headphones that were shipped with my iPod nano. Perhaps my expectations for a unit costing $14.99 to $29.99 were not so high, but for such a small device I wasn’t expecting $100-plus Bose power, only a set that would give me clear, crisp highs, non-muddled mid-ranges, and reasonable bass sounds.

Pastor
Review
Pastor is all I need for passwords. No more delving deep into my hard drive to find ’em. They’re all there in Pastor 1.8, well organized and easily accessible.
AppMenuBoy
Review
AppMenuBoy 1.0 is a handy little application that takes away some clicks (and valuable time) to get an application opened. It also put your apps in a quick invaluable hierarchical list, so one can get to all apps in no time flat.
