Is the tide turning?

I haven't posted for a while (and there's reasons, mainly, you can't do everything at once) so the fact that this is getting written should be a good indication of how excited I am about my latest discovery.
I now have two, yes two non-native applications on my iPhone 4 that utilise iOS system proxy settings. You heard correctly. Two applications that go out to the world wide web through the proxy server (here at work) get information and bring it back.
The apps are Omnifocus by the Omni Group and PocketCast from Shifty Jelly.
Omnifocus I am particularly excited about because now I don't need to switch to 3G mode just to synchronise my task lists. It now round trips beautifully with the desktop.
