Downloaded it last night, looks pretty handy; you can search for stations and it locates them for you and you can look at individual lines. Also has the key landmarks on the map in case you want to be a bit toursity...

...slight downside is that its in French, but its not hard to work out!

Had a look at the store for this, and there seems to be a few, would come in handy for locating yer nearest station when tipsy, and where to get off.
But they all seem to connect over 3g to get gps locations, which would mean data charges.
And i know that sad story, watching the 20 second amir khan fight on me iphone over 3g, and costing me only 120 euro for the 20 second clip

Aye I have an iPod Touch, but you can still use the app to search for stations when you know there names, and for looking around the map in general, better than nothing...
