Send to email | Five Great Apps For Hacked iPhones (AAPL) in General | By Silicon el 28-Apr-2008 |

Official third-party apps for Apple's iPhones are coming in June. But you don't have to wait until then: All you have to do is "jailbreak" your iPhone.
Not that we advise doing this: Lots of iPhone users who did use software like iJailbreak or ZiPhone, which lets you install unofficial, third-party apps, later found their phones "bricked" when Apple introduced software updates. Another update is coming in June, so we'd guess that jailbreakers may be unpleasantly surprised yet again.
That said, if you are brave enough to hack your phone, there's some cool stuff available for your troubles. Many of these should be available in the installer app you get when you jailbreak your phone:
Twinkle: A Twitter app for your iPhone. Much better than the Web interface.
MobileScrobber: Mobile Last.fm "scrobbing" app. Keep your account updated on the go.
SmartRSS: Clean, simple RSS reader.
NES.app: Nintendo emulator. Play Mario and other Nintendo games on the iPhone. (Touchscreen controls are not the best.)
Crosswalk: Finds the cross-street for any address in New York City. Includes a handy, zoomable NYC subway map.
