Just bought this from iTunes for my iPod Touch.

I've got a long drive tomorrow down to sunny Milton Keynes so will try it out and let you know how I get on

I'm also picking up some 19" Type IV AC Schnitzer wheels for my E90 during the same trip. I bought them used from eBay so I'm hoping they are the genuine article...

Yep,

I am not normally one to follow the crowd and the hype around a product. For example I bought a Creative Vision M (superior sound quality and more functions) instead of an ipod a couple of Years ago.....bad mistake in hindsight. Docking station issues

as Apple have cornered the market since.

Anyway my phone was due for renewal and by chance the local store has a few iphones in. So I took the plunge - mainly because of the 3G and large screen.

I have to admit it really is good and been designed well. Loads and loads of applications to download - lots are free too and has the advantage of being an ipod at the same time.

Internet access (via wi-fi) is just about as fast as my laptop too.

Mine's a contract phone so only cost £99 up front.

Not sure about UK price for the iphone only. I undertsand O2 and Carephonewarehouse are the only UK suppliers at the moment as it was in short supply. In a short while I guess they will be readily available for a reasonable price too.

The 3gIphone is selling in the states for $199
Think they are selling on ebay for £400+ (as per usual)

I would have a look around on the net first mate

Just got back from my first couple of runs!!

Just a quick review as I’m going out soon.

Unfortunately due to it pissing down half the day conditions weren't great but I was very impressed with the application.

I was a little dubious of this software and how accurate it could be. Obviously it needs to be run in the same car as some proper testing gear to see how accurate it really is.
So if anyone has both please post results.

That said as you can see most of the figures are pretty realistic:
