"You get to choose between four different Zippo lighter designs"
Mine has 20 (twenty) different designs.. Notice that there's 5 pages of '4 designs per page'.. =P

Fring is pretty neat, now that it's out in the App Store.
I'm waiting for the Apple In-Ear headphones with the microphone so I can use Skype in fring with my iPod touch.
And yeah, there are 20 designs in the Zippo lighter app, you have to scroll horizontally to get to the other ones.
Midomi's also available for the iPod touch now, still waiting for those headphones with mic.
Personally, I don't like the iBowl game or the Zippo lighter app, they're just "eh," and I don't get why they have such high rankings in the App Store.

This makes me sad, a lighter/flashlight app make the app of the week list. It?s just another useless application clogging up the app store, listed as a ?utility.?

I have been waiting for an iPhone VOIP solution for ages, and now that we finally have Fring, I am extatic! Not only can I now use iPhone to reach friends on computers overseas, but I can also with some very affordable rates use Skypeout on iPhone to call land lines as well. Besides saving me a ton of money for long distance international (which was so far limited only to my laptop), this is the utter convenience that lets me keep most of my communications/chat related solutions on my main communications device, the iPhone, with Skype VOIP available wherever there is a WiFi connection and having all chat providers available wherever I have phone signal! I even erased the AIM applet because through Fring I can sign into AIM, it loads my buddy list and I can chat with my AIM buddies through it as well.

This is so slick, meanwhile, CNET is glorifying some absolutely useless glitter and beads applet?!? I sincerely hope that's just because it appeared over the weekend and there was no time to write an article, otherwise, that's what I call out of touch!
