Top 10 Best/Most Useless Apps on the iPhone 3G!
It's been a while since a post about a topic which is close and dear to Omio's heart...iPhone Apps.
With approximately seventeen trillion iPhone applications and games currently on the Store, there are plenty of duds amongst the greats. DVICE has done the right thing, and focused on those which are the best and most pointless in equal measure.
1. Virtual Zippo Lighter - FREE!
A concert favourite, now without the risk of burns and smelling like lighter fuel!
Get the Virtual Zippo iPhone App here.
2. Koi Pond - 59p
Take a moment away from the stresses of modern life like the Recession and X-Factor voting travesties with this tranquil app.

3. Ocarina - 59p
Relive memories of wearing a green tunic, fighting monsters and playing with your instrument, also relive memories of playing the Legend Of Zelda: Ocarina of Time! Like the comment says: "...just blow into your mic gently and let your fingers do the rest."

4. PhotoFrame - 59p
Clock. Date. Favourite 20 photos. In a frame, only not really. Brilliant.
Get the PhotoFrame iPhone App here.
5. iPint - FREE!
The original useless app. Congrats for combining advertising and pointless functionality in one beautiful moment. Kudos, Carling. (Better than iBeer and it's free!)
Get the iPint iPhone App here.
6. BubbleWrap - FREE!
Not as good as the real deal, but to turn the obsessive/compulsive idea of popping every single bubble into a game gets full marks.
Get the BubbleWrap iPhone App here.
7. Sonic Lighter - 59p
Meet Lighter 2.0. Not only can you change the flame colour and create a blowtorch which ignites other iPhones, tap the globe and see all the other mugs who've blown their 59 pence!
Get the Sonic Lighter iPhone App here.
8. Nixie Tube Clock - 59p
Get your geeky grandad clock love on with this pointless app!
Get the Nixie Tube Clock iPhone App here.
9. Newton's Cradle - FREE!
The physics are slightly wonky, but no other app captures the relaxing ball clacking of a Newton's Cradle like this one.

10.Lightsaber Unleashed
The ultimate useless to useful app story. The PhoneSaber app was the star of the App Store, until it got pulled unceremoniously. Then it returned rejuvenated and officially licensed! Swing your phone and enjoy LightsaberTM sound effects!
