Free for Android, Biggu.com This clever all-in-one comparison shopping tool takes the guess work out of finding the best price for almost any item (both in-store and online.) Just install the free app onto your G1 and let the camera-based barcode scanner tell you exactly how much you should pay for everything from books to household cleaners to compound miter saw blades. We tried this application on all three products and found that while the program initially takes a moment to “read” the barcode, its dead-on scanning capability gives you a nice range of prices. Our scan of the household cleaner, for example, let us know that we indeed got the best deal at our local big box store, but buying a case from Amazon was cheaper per unit. |

The title of this article should have been "Recoup the Money You Dumped Into the iPhone." I know time and space for articles are limited, but only putting two apps related to Android and all the rest to iPhone was a bit disappointing. The funny thing is that many similar apps have been available for Windows Mobile Phones longer than the iPhone has been on the market. The only problem is that there is no one place to go find them. Tech people, like the ones that troll this sight, are smart enough to know how to find them. One big difference between iPhone and Windows Mobile Phones is that I can install any app I want and as many as my memory can hold.
