    I like StoneLoops! the game.

    I like Flight Control the game.

    I like F.A.S.T. the jet fighter game.

    I like Hero of Sparta the game.

    I like Air Mouse. I can be sitting away from my PC and control it with my iPhone doing mouse/keyboard actions. It's especially convenient to turn off your PC while remaining seated away from your desk. Really cool if you have a big monitor and you don't even have to sit at your desk to do stuff.

    Phone Flicks for Netflix
    SportsCenter

    I need more...more...more!

    I can't believe no one has mentioned Slacker. It's like Pandora but a lot better.

    I have NEVER bought an app. Maybe 'cuz I'm a cheapskate, but I don't see a need to buy one of them. :(

    Which apps have you all bought that would merit dishing out the cash? :confused:

    I forgot about mentioning Pandora. That helps me get through the work day ever since I got an iPhone. It's really cool for isolating/listening to songs from a certain band or genre. I can go from some rock like Triumph to Rush to Def Leppard to Simon + Garfunkel to Cat Stevens to whomever...very easily...and semi-always be surprised by the songs being played. I say semi-always cause songs tend to repeat a lot on the stations. But, this app really got me back into a mix of different music. I think it's helped my soul.

    I haven't bought any either. Most of them just sit there rotting after a few uses (the free ones, anyway). There is only one that I have that is free that I would pay for and it's for trading stocks via TDAmeritrade. That, Google Maps and weather apps have been the most useful to me.

    I bought the app that let's me sync my hotmail with my phone. It cost ten bucks. Before I could check my hotmail from my phone but as I went through stuff it wasn't being updated in the main email. I probably overpaid but oh well....
