    Hi,

    I've loaded a bunch of aps for DS on DH's iPod Touch. These are the winners so far:

    Geotap (identifying countries and capitals on worldwide map) (there are plenty of free US geography aps, too)

    Spelltris (boggle-like spelling game where idea is for the knight to rescue the Princess)

    DS also likes Oregon Trail

    I also downloaded a few math aps, but he has no interest.

    Anyone else find something good?

    Is DS a patterns guy? Games on my iPhone that DS can play from time to time...

    * Shift Lite (a platform/puzzle game that allows you to rotate the puzzle and invert the colors. A favorite)
    * CrackCode ... ala "Mastermind"
    * ChessFree (although actually I play that more than him!)
    * Checkers
    * Learn Chess (more of an ebook)
    * Abacus1.2 (actually there are a few abacus games)
    * Planets (that's what it's called) about all of the planets and space. Not a huge hit.

    I don't think I've purchased a game yet, so these are all free games.
