It’s not a full review, but more of a quick run down of applications for the Mac as well as the iPhone/iPod Touch.

First up is an app that actually spans the Mac and the iPhone. I’ve been using June Clould’s Delivery Status widget for years to keep track of Amazon.com, USPS , Fedex and UPS packages and now they’ve released a companion iPhone app for $2.99. This allows you to check packages via the iPhone when you’re on the go, but if you’ve ever tried to type in the 16 digit tracking codes with the iPhone (remember, no cut and paste) it tends to sour the experience. Well, June Cloud’s got you covered. Once you setup and account you can then sync your tracking data between the desktop widget and the iPhone and never have to type in those crazy numbers to your iPhone again!

Check out their site (junecloud.com) for all the details and I hope you’ve enjoyed the first installment of Random App!
