I only have free apps. Have yet to find anything I was willing to pay for.

Some favorites:
facebook
tv.com
AOL radio
TV Guide
PhoneFlicks (manage your NetFlix queue)
AAA TripTik (GPS with voice commands)
 
The Dis and Eticket provide this information.

The Dis is FREE.

Can't get Eticket for my Droid yet! :rolleyes1

...I do have Lines right now though and can access wdwinfo through the browser if I'm stuck and need to know more info that isn't already in my head! :upsidedow
 
My favorites (that I access at least once everyday) are:
  • Facebook
  • Kindle
  • Weatherbug
  • Woot

I also like:
  • IMDB
  • ESPN ScoreCenter(yes, I'm a girl, but I like to check the scores!)
  • AroundMe (great for finding what you need "around you" when you're in an unfamiliar area)
 
On my iPhone
ToyStory Mania
Facebook
Yahoo Messenger
Tweet Deck
Dish (i can set my DVR from my iPhone)
TripIt (free version)
Pandora
Around Me
Geocaching (I think this was close to 10 bucks, but we like it)
Red Laser (bar scan program-looks on the web for prices)
eTicket
Shazam
Words with Friends (free version)
IMDB
Kindle
Yammer (twitter for work--we're trying it out)
 
I'm a new Iphone user - so far:
eticket - love it! can't wait to use it in the world.
awesome note
MLB lite - baseball schedules, standings, etc.
facebook (of course)
Pandora
Mouseworld Radio
 
All for iPhone

Evernote (free) - simply a great way to track everything. Even better on iPad. I use the desktop app too. Pete mentioned this app on one of the podcasts.

OmniFocus ($19.99) - a great task management app. I combine it with the desktop version.

Cyclemeter ($4.99) - I'm using this to track my bike rides but it would work for any moving activity.

Osfoora (on sale for $.99, regularly $2.99) - the best Twitter app.
 
I've been downloading like crazy

A cool wine app that lets you scan the barcode and look up the wine, rate it and make notes

The barcode reader is fun, not real useful IMHO, but fun anyway.

A few games that are cool

A light saber app, a lighter app from BIC

Tomorrow I'll be spending the day at work finding useful apps and getting all my contacts transferred and hopefully setting up my email to all forward from work to my gmail acct.

Steve-Haven't seen you on the boards in a month with Sundays :).
On my Droid Eris
Dolphin (with the DIS bookmarked)
Facebook
Twitter (both peep and twidroid-I have two twitter accounts)
The weather channel
Foursquare
Solitare
Evernote (while listening to this week's disboards show, I wanted to remember to go to the Hess before the cruise. Evernoted it and it's on my cell+my laptop)
Wordpress for my blog
 
I like the Undercover Tourist's WDW app for maps, wait times and schedules. It also has a GPS system for finding where you parked at the theme parks' lots. Great app for $1.99.
For Disneyland, Mousewait is an excellent free app. It offers wait times, tips, news, links to menus, Disney music and even has a message board and a webcam.
 
Among my favorites on my Droid:
* Better Alarm- this is my only alarm clock at home and when I travel. And I love that you can use your own mp3 for the alarm sound- I have Second Star to the Right as my alarm!

* Budgetroid- fantastic for keeping track of expenses on vacation. No more saving receipts. You can use it everyday- but I only really care on vacation.

* Carr Matey- finds your car in a parking lot!

* Droid flashlight- uses the LED light on the phone- great flashlight!

* Evernote- terrific! Love that I can enter on the phone or my laptop and it stays sync'd.

* Sudoku (free)

* Trip-it- absolutely wonderful for keeping track of all the details of my WDW (and more) vacations. And I can enter from the phone or laptop and keep it sync'd. All my confirmation #s, ADR #s, flight info, etc. All in ONE place.

* WDW Lines- excellent

* Weather bug- I can keep track of Orlando, home and more everyday

I LOVE my Droid!!!! :love:
Yes, I wish I could have Eticket, but I still LOVE my Droid!! :love:
