A lot of TiPb faithful have noticed that we look a bit different when you visit us from your iPhone. It’s true, we’ve iPhonified it up with the excellent IWPhone software bits. If you’re a believer in getting the “real internet”, just scroll on down to the bottom of the page and hit the link for “Normal View” and Mobile Safari will keep you on the full version until you clear your cookies.

The iPhonified version is very full-featured, with links to the forums, our about page, search, and gives you the ability to comment too. Actually, speaking of forums, you can grab our forums in an iPhone optimized version too, there’s a big ol’ link at the top when you visit them on your iPhone.

One note — during high-traffic times, your iPhone-optimized version might revert to the full version of TiPb. Ok, two notes: don’t forget that you can just type “tipb.com” into your address bar to find us.

Now that we’ve successfully giving away over a thousand dollars in iTunes Gift Cards and an iPhone 3G, it’s time for us to take a breather. Thing is, the way we take a breather here at TiPb is to start up another way for you to get what you want for your iPhone. Here’s the deal:

Head on over to our new “iPhone App Lightning Reviews” forum and, you know, post a review of an iPhone app. It can be native or web, legit or jailbroken. Be sure to include some screenshots as attachments — on iPhone 2.0, you can just hold down the home and powerbutton briefly and the screenshot will get saved to your camera album. Keep it around 500ish words, be fair, and try not to all review the same apps — though reviews after major updates are always a good idea. Give it a rating out of 5 stars and a couple pros and cons at the end too, for those crazy skimmers.

…Why would you do all that? Every so often the TiPb staff will be picking our favorites and promoting them to the front page. We’ll thank you by giving back to you. More after the break!
