One of the best things about owning an iPhone 3G is that you can take it with you wherever you go. Traveling is where the iPhone 3G really shines. Very few other devices can let you make phone calls, browse the web, play games, watch movies and TV shows, and run a zillion different applications all while traveling the globe.

In this round up we’ll take a look at the top ten best free travel apps for your iPhone 3G. This article is three pages long and you can navigate by clicking the Continue To Page # link at the bottom of each page or by the Related Posts link at the end of each page.

#10. Trapster
Are you a speed demon on the road? Desperate to avoid speed traps as you cruise down the highway? Then check out Trapster and use your iPhone 3G to avoid police speed traps, red light cameras and other modern inconveniences.

Trapster uses GPS and wi-fi location features of your iPhone 3G. You can display distances in kilometers or in miles. When you get near a trap your iPhone 3G will play a sound to alert you. If you see a trap you can let others know by tapping your screen and you can rate traps reported by other Trapster users. Trapster tracks the credibility of its users based on how many others agree with reported traps.

Trapster might just be what you need to save you some big money on insurance premiums and speeding tickets.

#9. Urbanspoon
When you’re out and about you sometimes find yourself hungry and not sure where to go. Urbanspoon lets you easily find a good restaurant via your iPhone 3G. Just shake your iPhone (yes, you read that right…shake your iPhone 3G) and Urbanspoon will suggest a restaurant nearby for you to enjoy. Don’t like the selection? Shake your iPhone 3G again.

Urbanspoon uses GPS to locate restaurants. You can opt to filter choices by neighborhood, price or the type of cuisine that interests you. You can browse or search for restaurants or see a list of all nearby eating establishments. And you can also compare restaurants with friends and see reviews and ratings from bloggers, newspapers and other patrons.

Yelp also lets you browse reviews by city and you can look up contact information for businesses and then use your iPhone 3G to find your way to them via mapping.
