I would wait and see if they develop native apps. You don't want to be stuck in a hospital with no cell signal and no WiFi where you can't access these things you've paid for.All of the ones at www.skyscape.com. They are all webapps, you can access them over the internet. They have pocket harrisons, wash u manual surg, harrisons pedi,etc, etc. For the palm and the windows mobile OS, these were apps that were downloaded to the device. Skyscape says that for the iphone, the programs are accessible online only for now, they are working on downloadable apps.
Not being able to get these and other specialty-specific 3rd party apps was the reason I didnt go with Iphone initially. I am looking forward to seeing if anyone is able to use these on their Iphone 3g, not just epocrates.
I returned my Iphone for a refund. It's too prohibitive for answering phone calls. Too much button pressing to receive and make calls. It was never meant to be a phone with ease of use. I've rather opted to have a separate phone that functions as a good cell, and now I'm seeking to have a PDA or some other device to just function for programs. The Iphone does everything and is mediocre at each. Sometimes it locks up too, and to have a 2yr plan is a little scary since if it gets screwed up, you're PHONE is screwed up.
