eBuddy
Dropbox
Dolphin browser for the web
Tweetdeck for Facebook and Twitter etc.
Was addicted to Angry Birds for a bit but its uninstalled now.

Because of this thread I've installed Bikehub. Deffo a good tool.

Evernote - very good indeed

Never used Evernote before. Actually looks very useful. Probably couldn't justify the paid service though.

Launcher Pro
Beautiful Widgets
Soccer Scores
My Battery Status

For those who need SSH client ConnectBot works well with Linux servers..haven't used it with others so can't comment.

Springpad is good. It's worth noting Dolphin has released Dolphin Mini which seems to load pages much faster. Pure Calendar widget is also good and Sky+ is very useful for recording those forgotten programmes.

Has anybody any experience of the Wildfire.
The Desire or HD looks excellent, but I can't find an excuse for any thing above £20 a month as I am such a light user.

It will become its own excuse, IMO.

It is not "just" a phone and, in many respects, is outperformed as a "just" a phone because the maximum battery life of around 2 days means you can do better with a 10 year old Nokia if you only want to make phone calls and texts.

If you consider it a small netbook, and use if for email, browsing, GPS, music, messaging, receiving news and weather forecasts without having to download them, carrying Streetmaps in your pocket and having a pretty darned good gaming platform as well, then the phone becomes a bit of an aside.

The decision for me was between a £20 phone and a £25 computer, a decision which didn't trouble me for long.

Well,i have been playing with my new Desire Z for a couple of days now and absolutely love it! I do text and Email far more than call,and it does everything perfectly and is,as Norm said,far more a mini computer than a phone.My very first mobile years ago,a Nokia 5110 was way better as a phone,needed charging once a week and never dropped a call.but did bugger all else! Yes,the desire eats battery life which is only to be expected,and assigning individual ring+text tones to contacts needed me to download an app to enable this important(to me!)feature,but the phone is ace! I absolutely love it! All I need now is to find an app that will cook my tea,clean the house and run me a bath, and ill be a happy Bunny! And the worrying thing is that there are so many thousands of apps for it that if I looked long and hard enough I would probably find one to do all that! All in all I would recommend it to anybody and although I had my doubts at changing from an SE 995 I wouldnt change back.

I haven't found an app for that but I'm willing to substitute until someone creates one...

Glad that you are liking it, Text-Monster, I reckon my life wouldn't have been worth much otherwise.
