Best Boston-Centric Iphone Apps
APPLE Iphone APP STORE
The iPhone application we're most excited about is the new version of that hoary computer-class staple Oregon Trail. But Massachusetts is well-represented in the iTunes app store, too, with a goodly number of programs tailored for people living in or visiting the Hub. FREE BOSTON is a database listing all the gratis things one might do around the city on a lovely spring afternoon. BOSTON HOOPS LIVE corrals the latest info about the Celtics from Yahoo! Sports and ESPN directly into your phone. THENEXTTRAIN MBTA offers searchable schedules for the Commuter Rail. BOSTON GPS TOUR gives tourists and the curious historical walking tours of the city using the iPhone's built-in GPS. And, our favorite, HOME-RUN DERBY is a nifty 99-cent game where one can dig into the batter's box of a virtual Fenway Park and jack dingers into the center-field bleachers.APPLE iPHONE APP STORE | apple.com/iphone/appstore
