Default New to the IPhone

I just recently purchased the Iphone this weekend. I have two questions

1) What type of connection works best for the Iphone? the one I had gives me an alert saying its not compatible and won't alert me to incoming calls. Is there one that works w/ the Aux port?

2) Best apps?

My phone always says that too. Kinda a nusance but doesn't affect anything. Just hit no or what ever it says to not turn off your incoming calls. I have a belkin iPod control that is a circle with a play next and previous buttons. On the thing that plugs into the cigarette lighter. It's really pretty sweet but kinda expensive at 50 bucks. And you use the phone just like you would to answer and talk on the phone. There's no option to have the other persons voice go through the speakers. As far as apps go the are you talkin about to help you with your jeep or just good ones in general. Do searches on YouTube and people are always reviewing them. But they have inclinometer you can use. Programs for geocaching. They have a cool app called ahud that I use as a heads up display for my speedo because I just put bigger tires on and still have to get a programmer. It mirrors the screen and you just lay the phone on the dash and you read the reflection. Or on the steering column. Hope that gives you some ideas.
