Best iPhone/iTouch Apps?
 
Ok, so since my 39th b-day was coming up I thought I'd treat myself to a new toy: I purchased a 32GB iTouch (It's somewhere on it's way and expected to arrive Monday). As a result I've been going through the iTunes store looking, oogle and such at various apps. I've downloaded a few but I'm looking for opinions on the best apps -- free and not-so-free.

So what are your favs/best of?

Flick Fishing and Pandora are two I spend a good bit of time with.

Grocery IQ (man, I now bring home everything she asked for)

USA Today

Say Where

Flight Sites (as I travel quite a bit)

Flixster

......and for absolute chits and laughs:

Oh lord Carlos. You're out of control. I roll my eyes at myself that I'm on my 3rd screen.

In all fairness, they are not all applications.
Some are shortcuts to sites that I elected to make icons rather than use the bookmarks.

Re: Best iPhone/iTouch Apps?
 
Oh.... I just checked, I have 7 open windows in Safari, so that would fill up at least another page if I added shortcuts for them.
I used to have some shortcuts, but then realized that those pages are typically open anyhow in Safari.

Harmonica (just for the dumb expressions it can generate when people see you playing it)
Pandora
Trailguru (Keep track of runs, walks, hiking, etc...)
Shazam (Can't name that tune? It will do it for you)
Yelp (It's 1:00 AM and need to find an Ethiopian restaurant that's open near you)
Facebook (Yes I am a FB S l u t...)

AIM (works surprisingly well)
Stanza (ebook reader with tons of free books)
Apples iTunes remote (works really well if you have remote speakers set up, can control them from anywhere in the house)
Tap Tap Revenge (great little music music game, with downloadable tracks)

www.packet8.net

Allows you to call internationally at real low prices with no contracts. I can call mobile phones in Switzerland for $.37 a minute! Uses wireless to initiate call, then call through your phone. No fees upfront, just for what you actually call.

Much much cheaper than using AT&T!

Wunder Radio is one of the best apps I have!
Check out You Tube for a review on it. It is astounding if you enjoy radio!

Of course I new to this game and can't imagine having a bunch of apps. For me Mobile Stogie is at the top of the list. Apple Remote is also perfect for me.

Oh.. just wait. You start with pondering ..."hrmmm... it'd be nice to know what restaurants are in the area.. I'll download that app" and it just snowballs. :P
