One of the first location based freeware applications which has earned a place for itself on my phone, Llama, provides a simple interface to perform location based activities.
Llama lets you define events which perform actions based on conditions specified by you. So depending on your settings, it lets you set actions such as changing your profile automatically, displaying a reminder, changing bluetooth settings, or even sending an sms when you enter/exit a particular location (network cell). The actions can also include additional conditions based on time and day and activity associated with that area.
The interface is pretty simple to use, but could use a little improvement. Overall its yet another great application to use. Llama can be downloaded from here.
Now i can easily attend meetings without worrying about my cellphone ringing and waking me from my sleep :)

The iPhone features a 2-megapixel camera , voicemail and a predictive QWERTY soft keyboard that prevents and corrects mistake while you type your emails/sms. Although it supports Edge and Wi-Fi, it lacks 3G capabilities.The iPhone features a rich HTML email client and Safari and also a range of other widgets and applications. As of now the iPhone currently lacks business applications. The iPhone is based on OS X Operating System.
The iPhone also introduces a totally new user interface based on a large multi-touch display and innovative new software that lets you control everything using only your fingers. So you can glide through albums with Cover Flow, flip through photos and email them with a touch, or zoom in and out on a section of a web page — all by simply using iPhone’s multi-touch display.
With a storage capacity of 8GB (also available in a 4GB version) and a battery with 16 hours of audio playback capability and an excellent interface, the iPhone may redefine the way we use our cellphone.
