Top-Tens, a reference app that lets users follow lists of their interests and hobbies, has added a list of top rumored features for the next iPhone.

Wouldn't it be great if you could control your car with your iPhone? If you disregard how stupedly dangerous it is, then the answer is absolutly yes. Unfortunately for us, we'll just have to settle for this surprisingly well-made video displaying how such an app might work. Video after the break.

Those of you reading this from Indonesia are in luck. Macworld reports that In celebration of Telkomsel's 14th anniversary this month, the company, which happens to be the official carrier of the iPhone 3G in the country, is offering Rp. 1 million (roughly $96 as of earlier today) off of all models of iPhone 3G for anyone who signs up for a 12 month contract. More info on the deal is available here for those who can read the language.

Hulu.com has released a desktop application for viewing Hulu content. It's very slick and a great way to watch Hulu's content on a computer--particularly one attached to a TV.

The Associated Press reports that in an attempt to deter truancy, Aoyama Gakuin University will be handing out 550 iPhone 3Gs to students at the School of Social Informatics, making for a total of 1000 test run participants. The device, they hope, will be used by students for research purposes and to receive class schedule and lecture information.

Hey, the weekend is coming, so how serious can we be? Sky Burger, [App Store] a pretty cute arcade game for the iPhone and iPod touch, is free today only. Note: As of Saturday morning PDT the app is still free.

The game involves tilting your iPhone to catch ingredients to make a sandwich with the required ingredients. There are 50 possible burger orders to try and get right. You cap it all off with a bun. It reminds me a little bit of the theme of the 1982 game called Burger Time.

Sky Burger seems a bit silly but it can get pretty addictive as you try to build up points and tips. The game has good music and sound effects. Try it for free: even vegetarians will like it. Tomorrow the game goes back up to US$0.99. Even at that price, it's pretty good fun.

Thanks, Ian!

The Sims 3 comes out next Tuesday, but Chris Holt has gotten his hands on the game early and reports on what makes it different from its enormously popular ancestors.

The Sims 3 comes out next Tuesday, but Chris Holt has gotten his hands on the game early and reports on what makes it different from its enormously popular ancestors.

Following last week’s crazy screen rumor that iPhone 3.0 would add movie and TV show direct, on-device downloads to the current music and audio and video podcast downloads, Apple Insider reports that they have:

…learned from people familiar with Apple’s training program that new self-guided training materials being distributed to familiarize AppleCare agents with the features of iPhone 3.0 software “definitely covered” the ability to directly download movies and TV shows on the device itself, rather than just syncing video content through iTunes.

And points out that “Apple never puts out product training this far ahead of a product launch.”

So what’s going on with that? We figure it’ll be Wi-Fi only, but could there be anything else going on here?

Return of the iPhone 3.0 Direct Movie + TV Show Download Rumors!

Daring Fireball's John Gruber has posted his satirical rendition of what might go through the mind of an iPhone app reviewer at Apple, titled "Excerpts From the Diary of an App Store Reviewer". While it's good for a few laughs, it's about as funny as it is frustrating, as a lot of what we saw wasn't much different. We can only hope someone at Apple sees it and gets the idea. You can check it out at Daring Fireball.
