Cool iPhone/touch Apps, what do you like?
 
I've found a few that I really like, Fluid 2 and the Koi Pond are all zenlike and relaxing.
There's an app called CoolFacts and it's free and neat. Geek facts, kind of like a virtual outhouse of useless knowledge, but fun to read.
I use a medical thing called I.T. to track my doctor stuff.
The Weather Channel, Google Earth, iHandy Level, Olive Tree Bible NKJV and a bunch of other stuff I use daily are very useful.

What do you guys use, enjoy, like, or suggest?

The ones I use the most are :
Shop Shop (Good for shopping lists)
TrackerLite (To keep track of all those incoming packages)
Stanza (for reading)
craigsphone
checkbook
Mobile stogie

A couple I like that haven't been mentioned:
pic2shop - you take a picture of an item's barcode and it brings back Amazon reviews of the product. Worked great when I was shopping for a coffee maker last weekend at Target.

Pixelpipe - easily upload photos/videos/blog posts to dozens of sites at once like Twitter, Facebook, blogspot, etc ....

Grocery Gadget - make a grocery list.

PandoraBox - searches the app store for apps that are on sale/made temporarily free by the creators.

Shazam, good for when you hear a song and you can't remember the name or who sings it...Shazam will listen, send it off and you will get the song and artist back.

It's called "Illness Tracker". It's to take daily notes on my condition, meds, doc visits, everything. It's excellent, but it could do so much more.
They're on the right track though. It's very useful for me.

I'm going to look into some of these other apps that everyone mentioned (hence why I made the thread).
The grocery list thing sounds great.
Thanks for all the help so far, guys. :)
Keep them coming!!!

Evernote....great to have to cut and paste recipes, articles, or to use for notes, etc....syncs with desktop
Flixter for movie times
MLB at Bat lite for baseball scores
CBS Sports and Sportacular for scores etc.
Wall St. Journal and USA Today for news

The following are the apps I use the most:

Pandora - Must have for music lovers. This app gets more of a workout than all other app on my phone put together.
The Weather Channel - Current weather maps and even video forecasts.
ESPN Scorecenter - Set up your own scoreboards.
Flixster - Movie times, info, locations and trailers.
Google - Search internet by voice (for those of us without a 3GS).
Google Earth
Currency - Quickly convert those pesky Euros to dollars.
Shazam - Name that tune. Works really well.
Skype
Yelp - Restaurant locator and review service.
Bloomberg - More detailed stocks and financial news service.

Oh yes. This saved us on a recent trip.
We normally put the baby to sleep listening to Classical music.
I have an iPod in her room ready to go for the night.

We didn't bring it on vacation, so I opened the app, chose a Mozart song, and the app did the rest. Used it every night next to the Pack N Play.

Check out the Remote app if you listen to music on your PC a lot. The app allows you to control the music that is playing on iTunes on your PC with your iphone. I used it while out on the patio to control the music playing in the house. It's great.

There's an app that turns your touch into a mouse via your wireless network. I thought it'd be cool, but the reviews were awful.
It was all buggy.
