5 Must-Have iPhone Apps You Won't UninstallSo you've gone ahead and sprung for a Verizon iPhone 4 and for the first time have access to the biggest apps marketplace on the planet, the Apple iTunes App Store. Just like Apple's famous tagline, "there's an app for that," you will find yourself bombarded with so much choice that you wish you opted for the 32GB iPhone 4 instead.
Well here are a couple of apps to get you started and have remained on my iPhone 4 since the very first month I visited the App Store. Sure, there are much better apps out there but these 5 in particular have gotten the most usage and I would least likely find my uninstalling.
