favorite iphone apps?

[Kev]

I finally got one and seeing as there are thousands of apps to choose from, I wanted to see what you all thought were the best/most useful apps.

There's lots of apps that I like, but the ones that I use the most are:
1. Kindle for iPhone - it's it's my top pick for taking a book on a trip with me. Plenty of free books, and easier to use for reading than I thought it would be.
2. Keeper - an encryption app for storing passwords and such. I use it all the time.
3. Peggle - my favorite game for the iPhone.
4. GeoDefense - another very enjoyable game.
5. BeejiveIM - an IM app that's compatible with all of the usual ones, and has push notification.
6. Facebook - if you are at all into Facebook, this is a very good app.
7. Shazam - very good for identifying a song when you hear it on the radio.
8. AroundMe - great for finding restaurants, gas stations and ATM's when you need them.

1. Pandora - Since I added a subscription, it's moved back to my most used app. The free version is good too.

2. Slingplayer - Tv on the go means I don't go nuts when I shopping with the gf.

3. Now Playing - I use it to find out what new DVDs are coming out. It's also good for movies. You can get reviews, get theater times, and watch trailers.

4. iTV - Best guide for TV, IMO.

5. Tune Wiki - Gives you all the info you could ever need about songs in your playlist.

6. Directv - Being able to program my DVR from anywhere, is just too cool.
