iNdependence is a Cocoa-based application for Mac OS X which provides an easy-to-use interface for jailbreak, activation, SSH installation, and ringtone/wallpaper/application installation on your iPhone. It’s open source under the GNU v2 license.

The source code for interacting with the iPhone has been broken out into a library (libPhoneInteraction) so that it can be easily reused by other applications.

iAno is a virtual Piano for your iPhone. The author has recently renamed his application due to three reasons:

1) Don’t use images of iPhones in your logo or Apple sends you a “Cease & Desist” letter.
2) Don’t call your application “iAno” or you get a large number of emails each day from Spanish people using the word “anus”.
3) Don’t trust reports that GooglePages has no bandwidth restriction.
