    Best iPhone apps

    I just got my iphone last week. Is there any program that monitors the processes like windows mobile and lets you end certain apps? Cause i feel like whenever I open apps on my iphone then get out of it, that they are still running in the background and potentially eating up my battery. thanks

    Which 1TB internal HDD to get?

    I am going to use this HDD to store and play all my media files (.mkv,.avi, mp3, etc). Will the difference in performance amongst these drives hinder playback in anyway? Would it be worth it to get the higher performing drive (Seagate)? What HDD do you suggest? I guess I would want...
