You'd be surprised at how well it works, trust me.  The concept of a virtual stick/button layout sounds shitty (and most games that use it are), but I've had a lot of fun playing it.

yes, but he's broadcasting his iPhone 3G connection as a (jailbroken) WiFi tether for his iPad. Which REALLY drains the battery.

Again, I apologize for being dense; but why tether an iPhone to an iPad? Did charlie not buy a WiFi iPad? And if he didn't, is this all about having a bigger screen?

I was going to get tethering added to my account but then I thought hey, if I need to access the web, I could just do it via my iPhone! Maybe I'm misunderstanding something.

He got a WiFi iPad but not a 3G one. But now he can tether the iPad and use his iPhone's 3G connection instead, thereby negating the need for a supplemental Dumb Ass Softbank Contract™

I Am T-Pain - seriously it's hilarious.  Not really a game but more of a karaoke autotuner that has nothing but shitty T-Pain songs which makes it even more ridiculous.  Very fun to have around with your friends.

Space Invaders Infinity - absolutely awesome.  Don't let the Space Invaders name fool you.  This is a SHUMP.

The 3D Rollercoaster games.  I think there's about 3 or so of 'em and you can buy it in a bundle.  Surprisingly entertaining.

Space Miner: Space Ore or Bust.  It's like Asteroids mixed with an RPG and it's one of few "dual stick" control methods that actually feels decent on the iPhone.

And I like Virtual Villagers 2 & 3. It's an acquired taste because you're not really directly controlling your tribes but just making sure they're staying on task.  Your people live, have babies, die, research technology, build homes, etc. all with the purpose of accomplishing a set of riddles/goals that you need to finish to "win".  These games take weeks to finish but luckily they also run in the background so you don't have to keep watching them. Ignore them too long though and you could end up with nothing but corpses.
