iPhone: Netflix queue management meets iPhone with iFlix




(No Ratings Yet)It has been a while since I found a really useful iPhone 3rd party application that I really liked. Today I was really pleasantly surprised when I discovered a new release called “iFlix” in my 3rd party application installer.
