I'm Marc Gittleman from Hard Drive 911 Data Recovery for TekieTV.Com, your best source for technology news and technology reviews. Life is full of frustrations, and who wouldn't love to find a non destructive outlet for all of them? With the popular iPhone app iChalky, now you can knock over, shake, throw, and generally abuse an animated stick figure without fear of prosecution. Chalky is a simple stick figure animated in a chalk board style that only wants to try and keep his balance... while you as a player get to tilt, shake, and completely turn his world upside down using the iPhone's accelerometer. Chalky also loves to dance, so if you're playing music near your iPhone, the character will dance along to any tracks he hears playing through the iPhone's microphone. But if you get bored watching him dance, just continue to abuse the hapless stick figure by picking him up and tossing him from one end of the screen to the other using the iPhone's touchscreen technology. Ichalky is ...

A classic video game hero returns with a whacky 3D racing game that could only star the one and only Crash Bandicoot. The popular character returns in “Crash Bandicoot: Nitro Kart 3D,” which lets you take on 8 zany opponents on madcap races through 12 twisting tracks. If you're falling behind or trying to stay ahead of the pack, use one of eight crazy weapons to give yourself an edge. The game utilizes the iPhone's accelerometer technology so you can twist and turn along the detailed cartoon tracks and feel all the game's “truly Nitro driving sensations.” The iPhone has brought Crash Bandicoot back, and it's well worth the $5.99 download price to play a new game with an old favorite.

Fieldrunners was just put up for download on the Apple App Store, and it has quickly become one of the highest rated games available for the iPhone. An ingenuously well designed “tower defense” game in which you must carefully and strategically choose from a series of four weapons to stop a group of invaders from attacking your tower. Don't overspend on the more expensive hardware, or you'll be out of money quick as the “Fieldrunners” you take down add up to the cash you need to buy more defense systems. The game starts simply with just a few invaders, but quickly evolves into an all out assault as you have to fend off a huge relentless army. Try new strategies and tactics each time you boot up this endlessly replayable game, but you'll never run out of fun as “Fieldrunners” will continue to expand with free content updates once you download the game. Fieldrunners costs $4.99, a completely reasonable price for anybody looking for a well designed ...

The iPhone is far and away the hottest gadget on the market. Apple has sold over 6 million of them since the iPhone launched last year. And with the release of the cheaper and faster iPhone 3G, the company is sure to hit, and surpass, their goal of 10 million sold by the end of the year. But not everyone is happy with the iPhone's advanced touch screen technology... women with long fingernails are having lots of trouble getting the popular device to work for them. The iPhone's touchscreen is designed to respond to the electrical charge emitted by a person's fingertips, and since fingernails do not emit a charge, it becomes difficult for women with long nails to operate the touchscreen. 10.4 million women now use SmartPhones, a number that has more than doubled since last year, making females the fastest growing segment of users of these devices by far. So what can Apple do about their “fingernail problem?” Some consumers have demanded a stylus attachment for the ...

Apple's new iPhone App store is the most exciting aspect of the phone's updated operating system, which comes installed on the the new 3G models and is a free upgrade for original iPhone owners. Over 500 applications created by third party developers are already available at the App store, many of them free and most of them with a price tag of less than 10 dollars. Apple has been very selective about which apps they'll allow in the store, but have they been selective enough? We'll run down which apps that are worth owning and which apps are a bust. First of all, Apple's own “remote” app is a must have. It turns your iPhone into a remote that can control your iTunes library and your Apple TV, displaying info about whatever song or movie you are playing on the phone's screen. File Magnet is a nifty app that lets you wirelessly upload PDFs, Office docs, videos, pictures, and audio files to view or listen to.

The new iPhone 3G is much improved over the already excellent first generation model, and it's flying off store shelves at a rate that's making Steve Jobs proud. But while the 3G offers a huge list of ways it gets better marks over the first gen iPhone, there is still plenty of room for improvement. The 3G is speedier at processing data, but also at sapping your battery. If you want to switch from 3G mode because you are not getting the best signal, you have to do it manually, which can be annoying if you are driving. Most distressingly, the 3G did not correct all of the criticisms of the OG iPhone... the new phone is still without a video camera, which means no videoconferencing for business savvy users. And the camera is still placed awkwardly on the back of the phone, making it impossible to take good self portraits. The original phone's aluminum shell has been replaced by black or white plastic, which makes it feel a bit less solid. But overall, the upgrade to the 3G is worth ...

Apple's new iPhone 3G is available with lines out the door of Apple and AT&T stores around the world, but is the new iPhone a big enough step up from the original? Let's take a look at the good on the new iPhone. The iphone 3G is a lot faster when browsing the internet than the original iPhone, which relied on the pokey EDGE Network when it wasn't connected to wireless access point. With 3G mode is enabled, you can easily see between 300-500 K down, toasting the original's download speed. The iphone 3G even sounds better, providing clearer call quality than the original iPhone, on both 3G and GSM mode. The physical design of the phone has improved as well, with the headphone jack now flush with the device instead of being recessed as it is on the first iPhone. This is a big deal, because it means you can use any pair of standard headphones to listen to your tunes without an adapter, as opposed to the first iPhone, which required you to use Apple's specially designed ear bud ...

You can choose from a wide variety of Zippo cases in a program that lets you flick your finger or snap your wrist to light up like a pro.

We've been taking a look at the most popular downloads from the iPhone App store, and some of these applications are more gimmicky than others. Take, for example, the inexplicably popular “Koi Pond” app... it's a pretty app that turns your iPhone screen into a serene pond which beautiful Koi fish swim around in. The iPhone's touchscreen technology allows you to run your hands through the surface of the water and cause the fish to scatter, or just stare at them blankly as they swim around your screen. The app is designed to relax you after a stressful day at work, and it's undeniably pretty to look at. But is it worth the money? “Koi Pond” is only 99 cents, but even at less than a dollar, it might be too much for an app you'll probably get bored with within a half hour of downloading it.

In “Origins,” you can use your iPhone's accelerometer to tilt your strange and unique and self customized creature to safety through a treacherous path. It's not nearly as deep as the full version of “Spore,” but very few games are since civilizations. But “Origins” is fun, has a great control scheme that lets you use the touchscreen to stretch and squeeze your customizable creature, and, at $9.99, worth the download.

Over 100 million applications have been downloaded in just a couple months from Apple's runaway success App Store... We're going to take a look at some of the top selling paid downloads from the app store and tell you if you really need them on your iPhone or not. This past week's most downloaded paid app was “Pocket Guitar,” which, as the name implies, turns your iPhone into a mini guitar.
