Whether you’re going to class, parties, or the library, your time spent in one place is often limited. That’s why here at Funky we think having an iPhone 4 is the way forward. The wonder that is the Application Store, you can now do more than ever on the go, right from your iPhone 4.
As students you need the added flexibility and anywhere productivity that the iPhone 4 allows (that’s the line to sell to your parents...)
Here are seven applications for that every student should have on their iPhone 4:
Pandora – You have to listen to music, right? Start with a song or an artist, and get a never-ending playlist of songs you’ll love. Great for background music whilst studying, or music to jam to take will keep you away during an all-nighter. Having Pandora is like having a personally-tailored radio station right at your fingertips.
NimBuzz – Instant Messaging is a stable of most students’ computer screens. With NimBuzz, your IM contacts can come with you anywhere you go. NimBuzz aggregates your accounts from Skype, MSN, Yahoo, ICQ, AIM, Google Talk and many others. All the messaging you could possibly want to do. Download it on your iPhone 4 and have all your friends just a click away.
Facebook – This one’s a no-brainer; Facebook’s the best way to communicate with people in your social world, a critical tool to managing your events, friends, photos and goings on.
A2ZPro - At least one of these has to be school-related, right? A2ZPro is a super-converter of an application, perfect for anyone in the math or science fields- or just anyone who needs to figure out how many cups are in a quart after all. There are 154 things between which you can convert, and you can add any one that’s not already included. You can customize the list to your liking, and all the converting you could need is right in front of you.
Twitterfon – Twitter, in addition to being the easiest way to waste a ton of time on the web, has potential to be hugely useful. It’s a great way to find interesting thing to read, get questions answered, or communicate with other people similar to you. Twitterfon’s also the free Twitter app of choice- offering easy to read and write tweets, and organize your messages, replies, and friends. If you can avoid the time-drain that Twitter can be, it’s a powerful way to manage your information and learn a lot at the same time.
Stanza – Reading. Apparently it’s a critical part of school? With Stanza, you’ll have an e-book reader available right on your iPhone 4. You can download books, either for a fraction of their price or often nothing at all, and read them at your leisure. There is a huge, and growing, list of books to read both school-like and otherwise.
Remember the Milk - We’ve all got stuff to do, right? Remember The Milk’s iPhone 4 application lets you add, edit, and manage your tasks either on or offline. The best part, particularly for students, is the “Nearby” feature- you can view all the tasks, errands, etc. that take place near wherever you currently are. It’s perfect for anyone who’s mobile, but still needs to be able to get things done.
Your iPhone 4 really can be your one-stop productivity and fun spot as a student, all without costing you another penny.

Apart from Facebook, I don't have any of them! (but then I am not a student at the moment)

I also, only have Facebook, haha. I've never even heard of the majority of them! iPhone's are too expensive, so I couldn't really afford one... and I'm not keen on going onto contract!

I only have facebook too, never heard of the rest! iPhones are ridiculously priced, i'll stick to my blackberry I think.

I really want a iphone 4, just have to wait till my contract expires. March i think it is.

I like the look of them, but they're too expensive. I'm quite happy with my phone atm so unless I can find a cheap one i'll stick with the phone i have.
