Caveat Emptor: WMATA iPhone App

2008_0710_iphoneapp.jpgWe know that plenty of you are getting all psyched about the new 3G iPhone, which is set to deliver tomorrow morning. (Hopefully, this release won't result in as much cutting in line as the first incarnation of the much-sought after gadget.) Via We Love DC, it appears that some intrepid developers have created a new iPhone navigation application called iTrans DC (link requires iTunes), which allows you to access published Metro times. Sounds cool, but $15 seems like an outrageous amount to pay for information that you can easily get from WMATA or Meenster, with just a couple additional clicks of your finger. Some of the early iTrans DC reviewers are also skeptical. We've pasted them below:

So, iPhone users, think you'll splurge for the iTrans DC application?
