Another amazing way to get the best price on just about anything is with SnapTell, which lets users take a picture of what they want to buy before telling them exactly what they can expect to pay. We were able to take a picture at a considerable distance away from our book of choice and the SnapTell software accurately pegged the title without ever having to mention ISBN numbers or the author. Just snap, send, and wait for price-comparison information to appear on the screen. We found our copy of the “2008 Writer’s Market” at several competitive price points on the Web (and at a few shady-looking discounters, too). While the iPhone version seems built for speed, both downloadable versions met our needs of finding the best deal quickly for most books, DVDs, and video games.

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.
