WorldMate Live, one of my favourite travel applications for BlackBerry, has made the jump to iPhone just in time for WWDC. WorldMate Live lets you check flight statuses, manage iteneraries, search for new flights, convert currency, and plenty of more handy utilities. Their promo video takes a great jab at the masses of useless applications out there for iPhone, and how WorldMate sticks out from the rest. A version for Symbian just came out of testing earlier this year, and their Windows Mobile app has been available for long before that. Free and premium version are available, just go to WorldMate Live to check out the differences, or hit up iTunes to check it out now.
