If you’re one of those iPhone nerds, er, enthusiasts who camped overnight on dirty, cold pavement just to be one of the many firsts to get your hands on the sacred item, GetLeaflets is right up your alley. Leaflets are little, sleek apps, designed for your iPhone; they’ve been specifically tuned to run on AT&T’s EDGE network, which you’ll have to use, of course, if you’re a US iPhone citizen; point is, no mad wi-fi shake downs necessary.
Just go to getleaflets.com on your browser and you’ll find a whole directory of offerings; so far they’ve got, the indispensible NYT, Flickr, del.icio.us, Upcoming, search, Newsvine and Le Tour. There’s a feed reader to which feeds from any site can be added, and there’s also a listing of other useful iPhone apps that you might want to take a look at (Twitter, Digg, etc.). Don’t have an iPhone nor the $500+ to purchase one? You can still check out the screenshots and the demo (if you have Safari) on your regular, old computer browser.
