What are your must-have iPhone apps?
I'll be picking up my new iPhone tomorrow before I go out of town.

What apps do you have on your phone that you couldn't live without?

1. Any of the book readers
you can get free books that way.

If you are watching your weight and all that, for free look up loose it

For office apps, Documents to Go.

Oh and toodledoo for to do apps.

I also use from time to time quick office.

Oh and notebooks, for your notes app, far more robust than the one bundled in.

6. books are great. But the Stanley level, and the SlideRule kick.
The Seismometer and magic 8 ball come second.

As for books and readers, I have amazon's kindle, neo reader, Edgar Allan Poe, Shakespeare, Stanza, Classics and HG Wells collected works on mine.

Easy Wi-Fi (for easy and free logging into AT&Ts Wi-Fi network at most Starbucks)
Evernote

7. Cribbage, Skee Ball, Blackjack, gloop, orbit, ipsychedelic, iquarium
The first three I don't recall the makers, but they had high ratings... unlike others... The skee-ball one is a steal and the physics are amazing...

I found some of them - look up for reference only; I bought these direct thru apple store (and had to download skeeball and iquarium due to their size)


cribbage premium (new version since this review -- IT ROCKS)
http://www.intomobile.com/2009/03/20/iphone-app-of-the-day-cribbage-premium.html

skee ball

gloop/orbit/ipsychedelic
http://www.appstorehq.com/gloop-iphone-65642/app
http://www.appstorehq.com/orbit-iphone-65714/app
http://www.appstorehq.com/ipsychedelic-iphone-66758/app

iquarium
http://www.appstorehq.com/iquarium-iphone-75412/app

Couldn't find the version of BJ21 I prefer, but I saw one via search engine that might be better... or had mor pretty buttons to press... :D
