Travel Apps for your iPhone

I debated bringing my iPhone to India and Laos.  I didn't necessarily need the phone part of it.  In fact, it's locked to AT&T so I couldn't use the phone part of it without hefty roaming charges.  I brought it because of the ease with which you can do things.  What things are those?  Well, let me list a few:

1)  Make a post to Facebook with no more than a couple clicks

2)  Ditto for Twitter.

3)  Take pics, edit them and upload to the above with the same device.

4)  Record your gps route and upload instantly.

5)  Make and upload audio recordings.

6) Record and upload videos.

7) Listen to Music, watch podcasts, etc etc,

8) Check and write email.

9)  Surf the web.

OK, sure, you need a wireless internet connection if you don't want huge roaming charges, but you can find cafes all over and a lot of hotels have it also.  It's not that you can't do this stuff with a laptop, camera or netbook, it is just that it is so much easier with an iPhone. 

I'm hooked.  An iTouch would do the same and be cheaper.  If I had to do it over again, I might actually go that route.

At minimum, I think I probably will get the thing unlocked and maybe jailbroken.  It seems kooky that I can't stick a sim card in (about $6) and use the phone in Laos.
