AOL Instant Messenger.  Everyone knows about AOL Instant Messenger.  It’s one of the most popular instant messaging programs in the world.  You can now download it to your iPhone and use it to keep in touch with your friends while you’re out and about.  The iPhone version can do virtually everything your regular computer version can do, too!
4. Remote.  Remote is a downloadable remote control. You can use it to control a wide variety of things, such as your iTunes account and other entertainment devices.  Use it to play, skip, shuffle, and more. You can even view songs, playlists, and album art with it, making this a very cool application.
