It's not Voice Candy, but Voices looks as good, if not better: Retro tape recorder and microphone, cute icons, simple touch interface, and sharing via Twitter, Facebook, and eMail, so you can spook everyone with that infernal Reverse Voice effect. For $1, it's impossible to resist.

Now that I think about it, most of the apps I pasted in this graphic are now in the iPhone in one form or another.

Are you still missing a favorite?

I don't even know if this can be called a "backdoor" with as easy as it is to bypass the "Wi-Fi only" warning on this app:

Tap the OK button, and the app will act as if it can't receive broadcasts. However, tap the text of the warning message instead, and the Eye TV app will stream live TV over a 3G connection.

Easypeasy, and you might as well snatch up the app before Apple or AT&T react.

Update 1: Looks like Apple reacted pretty quickly and yanked the app already.

Update 2: There's a statement from Elgato, the folks behind the EyeTV app explaining what happened:

Some test code that enabled live TV streaming over the cellular network was accidentally left in the the EyeTV App. Apple requested that we remove the code since their agreement with AT&T does not allow redirecting TV signals over the cellular network. The code was removed and a 1.0.1 version of the EyeTV app was submitted. We expect EyeTV to return to the App Store when the 1.0.1 version is approved.

Update 3: Reader Tony wrote in to say that, while he could not download the EyeTV app through the iTunes link, searching for it on the iPhone App Store allowed him to purchase, download, and use the app to stream over 3G without any issues. Is anyone else able to still get the 1.0.0 version like this?

Of course, Pepsi was quick to respond to the criticism with a truly "heartfelt" apology on twitter:

Our app tried 2 show the humorous lengths guys go 2 pick up women. We apologize if it's in bad taste & appreciate your feedback.

In other words "yeah, yeah...whatever." Sexist or not, the app is absurd. Here is a dating tip that is guaranteed to work with all 24 types of women featured on the app: don't continuously check your iPhone when out on a date. [Twitter via Current]

Most of the sales pitch on the somewhat pricey CR200 matches that of the free iPhone/iPod Touch app: Wireless multi-room control of ZonePlayers throughout the house, quick access to music, automatic updates bring new features. With capacitive touch glass screen, 2-5 days of battery life, rugged body and removable battery, the thing beats hell out of the old-school scroll-wheel CR100, and is justifiable as a standalone product, if there wasn't a "free" alternative.

But there's one claim that seems to be a dig at that the iPhone app alternative: "100% dedicated to multi-room music." I don't know whether they think the delay getting from a iPhone's home screen to the Sonos options is annoying (k, it is a little bit) or whether they fear your significant other will go for a jog and take the iTouch with her/him, leaving you controller-less (it could happen), but they definitely view a single-function controller as a boon.

I am sensing two takeaways: The first is that, since Sonos sells a lot of product at the custom-installer level, those installers need some cool upgrades to go and sell to their rich clients who already have ZonePlayers in all 14 bedrooms of their mansion. God love 'em, that's fine. The other is that Sonos might spend more time on its potentially profitable CR200 than on its more populist iPhone app, and a divide may emerge.

So, Sonos: Please continue to support and develop the free iPhone app, which makes your product line accessible to people on a budget, and we will continue to write up things like this leaked CR200, which may not be for everyone, but makes sense in some cases.

We can see how they approved the app, since it's innocent by itself (a photo sharing and uploading app). But when 15 year old girls start uploading topless photos of themselves, like the previously approved and then denied Hottest Girls app, that's when someone needs to take the app off the market.

If you haven't already checked out MyPleasure.com's MyVibe app in the iPhone's app store, you might want to. Unlike many saucy apps out there, MyVibe is free—and fun.

Here's how it works: There's an on/off button that looks like many computer on/offs so it's easily recognizable. On the right there are up and down arrows to control your vibration - short, quick pulses (smaller #s) or longer slower ones (higher #s, up to 100).

The intensity of the vibration MyPleasure could use for this app is obviously limited by the amount of vibration that the iPhone offers, so the orgasmic potential of the MyVibe app is similarly limited. However, orgasms—while fun—aren't everything.

Anticipation, teasing and seduction play a major role in many people's sex lives. Why not turn on the app, hold the iPhone discreetly against your body while on the metro, in a cab or at work as you exchange sultry IMs or Twitter DMs with your real life partner or dream partner? Having a little vibration can add excitement and tingles to your day (and your genitals). [MyVibe via My Sex Professor]

First vibrator app, works for teasing and seduction.

It's free.

iPhone doesn't have enough vibe power to cause an orgasm.

Since Apple doesn't release detailed sales information for the iPhone App Store, this figure is just an approximation. LSVP is saying that Apple got about $45 million in total iPhone App Store sales for the last three quarters vs total sales of $25 billion. TechCrunch is saying $95 million, which is the number we have used for our illustration. Obviously, third-party iPhone apps are going to be less costly to sell, with no cost of manufacturing or design.

Still, the difference in total sales is staggering and the profit picture won't be significantly different from this. The chart really gives a good idea on how incredibly tiny the app sales are compared to the company total business. [Based on data from LSVP TechCrunch via Mashable]

However, it will only work right in the iPod touch. According to its Theo Watson—its creator—only the curvature of the iPod touch second generation allows it to work right. I wish it could also scratch the album, like a real vinyl. Then I would buy it, if it ever gets released in the app store. [Spinning Vinyl via Hack a Day via Nerdcore]

Heya Palm, looks like Apple is stepping up their game too. [eWeek via CrunchGear]

Have2P tracks every public restroom around you, giving you directions through the iPhone's Maps application. It will also tell you what toilets are for customers—please-coffee-brb!—and what are truly public restrooms.

But most importantly, it will give you bathroom reviews. Yes, my lovelies, bathroom reviews. This thing will tell you if a restroom is so dirty that it will require you to step inside, holding to the door as if you were Spiderman, then taking off your jeans and knickers like the Great Houdini, all while trying holding your bag and coat with your neck. Or, if you are lucky, find a place so clean that will at last be able to abandon your apartment and move there.

The best part: Have2P is free, free, free, free as in pee. [Geeksugar]

I needed something that would successfully wake me up and it failed in that respect. Also, the calendar failed in it's most interesting feature—it didn't show me the holidays. You can't really go wrong with showing a time, so its other features needed to make up for it.

Settings
If you double-tap the screen twice, it'll take you to the appearance settings where you can pick out the color display and set the brightness. Figuring out where the other settings wasn't so easy. For that, you'll actually have to go into Settings on your iPhone or iPod Touch. Here, you can change your display, clock behavior and calendar behavior.

Time
The time display is simple: choose your time separators, format, and whether you want to display it in 24-hour or 12-hour time. Back in the application, all you have to do is tap the time once to switch between 24-hour or 12-hour time (since I'm constantly switching back and forth between military time, I found this feature useful). When the iPhone is a horizontal orientation, the clock will switch to a larger display making it easier to read.

Calendar
In calendar settings, you can choose if your week starts on Monday. You can also choose whether you want to see holidays on a U.S. or a Japanese calendar. You can also have the calendar display up to 7 months (you use your finger to swipe across to change the months). Unfortunately, there's no way to make the calendar display larger. A quick look-through to find out what day St. Patty's day was on this year also proved fruitless.

Alarm
There's a clock icon in the upper right-hand corner of the app. Here you can click to turn on the alarm and set the time. The makers claimed that it might not work if the screen went dim or auto-locked (fortunately, there's an option to disable auto-locking in Settings—I turned this feature on). I tried using the alarm while it sat charging on my desk, and right beside me undocked. The results? Each morning, I rolled into work and told my boss, "I'm so sorry about this morning..."

Verdict
Go buy yourself a double cheeseburger with that dollar.

The Perfect Girl app spews out one-liners that some of you may never ever, ever hear from any self-respecting woman ("You are so right") for only $1. Honestly, even as a member of the fairer sex, I thought the app was completely worth the laughs... until I started hearing things I remember uttering in the past. Now can you guess which ones?

I'm the perfect girl.*
I called in sick for you. Have fun at the game!
I love ninjas.
Wear whatever you want.
I'll try anything once.*
Have fun drinking with your friends!*
Here, you can have my food.
You are so right.
Sleep in as late as you want, I'll have breakfast ready.
I cleaned the game room.*
Did you want me to wait outside?
I hooked up the surround sound!*
See you in the morning!*
I bought you a new speed boat.
I bought you some spray paint.
Do you think she's flirting with us?
I really love watching you play video games.
Happy birthday. I got you a monkey!
Just get drunk there, I'll come pick you up.

*If you guessed these, you were correct. See? I really am perfect.

With Sirius being so late to the party, the only question is whether the service is really worth paying for when there are so many good, free streaming apps out there like Pandora and Slacker. [Orbitcast via The Motley Fool]

• First you have to tell the app the state of your Rubik's cube.
• You can do this with two methods: Either painting the faces of the cube or, better yet, taking a photo of each of the faces.
• The program will analyze the faces and, after a few seconds, it will tell you the solution step by step, using a 3D interface.

I'm digging out my old Rubik Cube and getting this app just to have the pleasure to beat it 50 times in a row. [iTunes Store Link via Wired]

Just like MyHeritage—a celebrity facial recognition Web site—FaceDouble is a free iPhone application that will be able to determine which celebrities you look like simply by analyzing a photo you have saved on your phone. I personally like to think I look like Angelina Jolie, but I'm sure FaceDouble will tell me I'm more of a mixture between Mulan and Dora the Explorer. (Oh wait, I was wrong; apparently, I'm Ashley Tisdale). Hmm... [FaceDouble via GeekSugar]

I love handbell because each person in the row is responsible for just a few notes of a whole song. The Melody Bell iPhone app lets you tune your "bell" to whatever note you need to make the song, but just one note at a time, so you need to get together with friends to make it work, and shake it when your moment in the song comes. (An iPhone in each hand would be cool, though expensive.)

I wouldn't have let that kid get in the way of an otherwise solid performance, but you can see the promise of this, and the sound is damn good. It may not be the first ensemble performance using iPhones, but it's probably the biggest—and most scalable—to date. [Product page and iTunes App Store link]

With a CD-R spindle, some cardboard and wood scraps, a giant syringe, a webcam, and some glue, Stephen Myer created the body of a doggy-treat dispenser. He then used ioBridge's beta hardware—which included a pre-made servo smart board and a fill-in-the-blank type web interface—that created a widget and javascript for him.

After pasting the javascript into his iPhone, Myer also embedded streaming feed from a webcam on his dog's kennel, so that he would be able to see what his dog is up to when it thinks no one is watching. If Sparky is being a good boy, Myer could press a button that will give Sparky a treat! However, if Sparky is misbehaving, I have to wonder if this application can get the dispenser to smack Sparky with a broom. Although this application is not for purchase, Myer's blog has step-by-step instructions on how to turn your iPhone into your very own dogwatcher. [Cygnet via TUAW]

It's a clever idea. Avoid that $15 unlimited texting plan from AT&T by using your free email to send SMS messages. With SMS Touch, you can write an email (complete with the landscape-style keyboard and spellcheck functionality) and send it as an SMS to anyone in your phonebook. When they respond to your text message, instead of coming back to your phone as a chargeable SMS, the message actually arrives in your email.

In other words, you can send SMS messages while all the while communicating in email. Priced at $5, part of that fee goes to ongoing backend support for the program. And if you're interested, it'll pay for itself three times in one month anyway. [SMS Touch]

The developer, or someone posing as them (benefit of the doubt, yadda yadda) is offering $4 for every five-star rating on Amazon's Mechanical Turk. Since the app costs $1.99, you'd make a whole two dollars for the effort, enough to buy, like, another actually good iPhone app. Paid reviewers are told to identify themselves by placing five dots (.....) in the review. Gadget Lab points out that as of Friday, six of the 22 reviews had the marker. The dev's CEO wouldn't confirm or deny the effort. Shady shady. And dragging Santa into it, for shame.
