"Cofounding a startup was nowhere in my playbook. What sealed the deal for me was the iPhone itself. It's an intensely personal device. There's a real opportunity to change the way people think, work, and play."

I thought briefly about holding off on reviewing Leaf Trombone for their Weird and Small Apps roundup later this week, but we can't: this app, originally previewed at Apple's iPhone OS 3.0 event, is far too cool to wait on. Developer Smule has taken the iPhone and iPod touch -- already cool devices -- and raised them to all-new levels of amazement with this one-dollar piece of software, enabling users not only to play an instrument, but also to sit as a member of an Idol-style three-judge panel to comment on and rate other users' performances. Really awesome.
