iPhone in medicine!

If anyone has any doubt that the iPhone is the best thing out there, particularly if you're in the medical profession, just have a look at this:

If you can't tell by looking at it...that's a new iPhone application by AirStrip that allows you to stream patients' information to your phone! This goes well with Epocrates, the Osirix iPhone app, Med equations, and numerous other apps that are already available.

Simply put, no other phone even comes close. Some people are making a big deal out of the Pre, but today is not a good day to be Palm. Today, Apple also announced the new iPhone, which is obviously a much bigger deal than this new application. The current 3G iPhone already has many of the same features as the Pre, plus some that the pre does not have, and about 50,000 applications, compared to 18 on the Pre. However, what's much worse for Palm than the new iPhone (which beats the pre in just about every area), is the fact that the current 3G is seeing its price dropped to $99! So now, you can get an iPhone, which is already arguably better than the Pre, for $100 less than the Pre!

I do not unlock or jailbreak my phone anymore, so I really can't help you with that kind of stuff. Sorry about that.
