Vector Tanks $2.99 –> Free (App Store) is a 3D tank game displayed in vector graphics. While it may seem old school and boring at first.

Why is it Great? Endless tank action with a retro feel makes it really fun!

Chronic-les $.99 –> Free (App Store) is an iPhone app that brings users marijuana related news, history, laws, and medicinal uses all in one app. Anyone with any interest should check it out while it’s free.

Why is it Great? It is the very first marijuana-related iPhone application to hit the App Store!

ICONtact-$.99 –> Free (App Store) makes your contact list look better with icons. Your friend’s image will be displayed as icons so you can better recognize them in their icon form instead of a boring list on your default Contact app.

Why is it Great? Your friends look better in pictures.

Favtacts $.99 –> Free (App Store) adds SMS and email options to your favorite contacts. Now you can send SMS or email your favorite person more easily with just a few taps. No longer are you restricted to making a phone call.

Why is it Great? It is a good shortcut to send a SMS or email to your favorite friends.
