My birthday is coming up in a week or two, and my dad was up at my school this weekend. He just bought a macbook pro, told them that "he graduated from college" and got the student package. Since he already has an iPhone through work, he gave me the iTouch for my birthday!

I've downloaded a few apps, but I've mostly just grabbed ones off of "Top 25" lists and such. I want to know some of the neat apps you guys use! I'm mostly looking for free ones, but if you have a REALLY good paid one, I'd consider it.

I have so far:
Dropbox
Police Radio Scanner (paid $.99)
Alarm Clock
Flashlight
Mirror Mirror
Battery Magic <-- (Looking for a good one of these. I don't know anything about this one)
JumiMouse
RepairPal
Tweetdeck
Twitteriffic (trying to decide between the two)
Remember the milk
Google
GoogleDocs
SaiSuke (gcalendar synch)
AppGmail
Wikipedia
WikiHow
Pandora
Your Rights

Okay massassi, what should I get?

Flight Control, Flight Control Flight Control.

I use Sky News a lot, I also really enjoyed the Monkey Island remake (but that's relatively expensive), Texts from Last Night is funny, Pocket God is great VFM (it gets an update every week), Shazam is free and excellent, Now Playing is BRILLIANT, Skype does what it says on the tin and Ragdoll Lite is worth a look for free.

iShoot lite is a fun timewaster. I have the fandango app for movie times. I.tv for tv listings. Umm I don't use it for apps all that much frankly, but I did write this post on it.

i just got one too!
3rd generation?

well the apps i find useful so far are:
speed test - how fast is internet
Good Reader - app to read any documents pdf, doc, etc.

Tweetie 2 is the best Twitter app available right now. It's got every feature imaginable built right in. So good. It's worth two bucks.

+1 to Tweetie 2.

the one that turns it into an iphone

seriously I have an ipod touch.

skype + microphone + wifi

silly joncy, tricks are for kids

Also, if you have a Mac I highly recommend Rowmote Pro as my favorite app. I use a Mac mini as a media center hooked up to my Bravia, and Rowmote can launch/control several apps including Hulu Desktop and Boxee, you can also toggle a keyboard and trackpad.

iTracer is a really impressive 3D editing tool. It costs a little bit, but it's really cool. I use it to model chemical structures.

Currently my favs are:

Flight Control!!!!!!!!!!
Palringo for AIM/messaging
Pandora obviously
PEGGLE!!!!!!!!
Pocket Tanks
If you like Sports, Sportacular is a must as well as the new ESPN Radio app
Tweetie
Shazam
If you use last.fm, Scrobbl will scrobble tracks you play on the fly
Pano (if you want an example of a shot i took wif iPhone with it, here http://twitpic.com/jlubq/full)
Rope'n'Fly 2
Pennies

Also: Adobe just came out with a free Photoshop app for iPhone. Neato!

dud - you don't need an extra app to sync your google calendar - it supports exchange now.

That's all well and good if you have an exchange server >.>

Google does it for you. I have push on my gmail and my calendar and I don't got no exchange server

Tweetie 2, it's so good that I bought it having already bought Tweetie 1.
I Dig It, it's like that motherlode flash game.
GoldRush, it's like that motherlode flash game.
geoDefense, tower defense.
geoDefense Swarm, tower defense.
D.Chronicles, tower defense.
Infinity Gene, it's an all new space invaders.
Ambiance, it's like a mini itunes (free) store for ambient sounds like raindrops on a tent or a trickling stream.
Healing, some nice soothing musics.

Some a friend has which I find enjoyable/useful.

Doodlejump
Hotspots
IM+
Fieldrunners
Cartoon-wars
Stickwars
Offender Locator (lists local - finders. I use it for humor purposes)
AppBox Pro

Holy crap, Air Sharing is awesome. Turns your iPhone into a wireless USB storage device.

WIN.

If you have any kids get the KidsMealDeals.com app

I do not have any kids.

Are you sure?

A similarly awesome (and free) service is Dropbox, for syncing stuff between computers, which also has an iPhone app so you can view stuff in your dropbox on your iphone.

I have dropbox, but that requires it to be installed on the client computer. Air Share does not - it just shows up like a USB storage device.
