Zillow iPhone App: Real Estate in Real Time
If you're looking to buy a house -- it's a buyer's market! -- there is a new iPhone app that may appeal to you.
As we learned from Textually, the Zillow iPhone app lets on-the-go users view on-the-go real estate information; users can drive through a neighborhood and view, among other things, home values, homes for sale, and what has recently sold in the area. The application uses GPS to pinpoint a user's location, feeding her information about the surrounding structures in real time as she drives by.
Zillow, if you didn't already know, is a massive real estate Web site that lists approximately 95-percent of the homes in the U.S. The Web site's corresponding app seems more appropriate for a real estate professional than a prospective buyer, but a person can never have too much information when making such a huge financial decision.

Actually Zillow now requires Notification on the iPhone under OS 3.0 which IS NOT GOOD. After installing Zillow 3.0 version my battery life problem took a big turn for the worse.
The problem with Zillow OS3 is the notification kills the battery life (like 2-3X). I noticed this when I woke up in the morning and put my fully charged iPhone in my pocket. 1 hr later my battery was at 78%. Didn't even turn it on! I wondered how that could have happened when normally it would have been say 95%.
I noticed that the usage said that I've used the phone for 52 of the last 58 minutes! How did that happen I wondered. Well, long story short, it was the notification of the Zillow app keeping alive. I've since shut off notifications for Zillow and my old battery life is back.
