There is now an iPhone app to check your tachometer. It is called "Engine RPM"
and it is in the Utilities category in the App Store. It uses the sound of the
engine to determine RPM as accurately as an optical tach. It works on any
engine that makes noise: small planes, motorcycles, R/C models, etc.

This app is based on our "RPM from Sound" freeware Pocket PC app that has been
available for years. But this iPhone app is more reliable, easier to operate,
and covers the range 500 to 90,000 RPM.

Sure is. I think the most expensive app I have spent money on cost me
$8.99, but that one actually saves me money every time I use it.

All things are relative.
$12 is a lot compared to $0.00, but not much compared to $350.

BTW - tach app is pretty much meh.
Only digital display, and takes some fiddling to get it to settle down on
the Bonnie.

Definitely not to be relied on.
Interesting, though, and actually pretty clever.

The iPod touch can access the app store as long as you are in a wifi
area and it will run all of the apps that the iPhone 3G will run that
don't require mobile phone access.

There are some apps that require the GPS/compass hardware that is only
in the newer iPhone 3GS (eg the Tom Tom GPS software).

But the iPod touch will run the vast majority of apps from the app store.

Yes indeed, compared to the majority of the iphone apps, $12 is VERY
expensive.
