[PeterJames]

Im sure this topic has been covered once but I cant be assed to look

Vlingo- Reads texts voice dialing ect

RAC- Traffic info

Around Me- tells you where the nearest Mcdonalds is or petrol station ect ect

Pocket cloud- If you have a server you can connect to it via this app

Decibel- decibell meter you can calibrate it but I wouldnt trust it 100% gives yoou an idea though

Amazon Barcode reader- when your in a shop and see something you like you can scan it and see how much it is on Amazon

Run Keeper- If you exersize this will organise and record it

GS remote- If you use Grooveshark this is essential

I have hundreds more but those are my top used apps

Good one I saw today on Iphone was BB speed test which I thought was pretty handy. Unfortunately, as I think i'm the only person with a W7 phone in the UK, I haven't seen one yet for mine.
