The Glade 4.0

Kindle-LOVE this, let's me read whenever I want or have time.
Stanza-same as above.
IV Meds-helps me calculate my drips for work
convert units-conversion to metric
Drug Infusion-another good iv med calculator
Echofon-Twitter...i follow shitmydadsays
ECG guide-somewhat useful for work; heart rhythms
PS mobile-Photoshop for phone; love this!
Colorsplash-allows u to take a pic; turn it to BW and then choose one part of pic and color it back in, fun to play with.
Naturespace-white noise to help u sleep..not sure I like this one.
Zenonia-RPG game similar to Zelda
Bejeweled
Blocks
Flixster-movie trailers for upcoming or in theaters now.
Discovery Channel
DoBots to do's- to do list

I'm kind of an app whore. iTunes is showing 66 apps right now.

Here are my favorites...

Amazon Mobile (nice for tracking packages, easy ordering, etc.)
Assassin's Creed: Altair's Chronicles
Classics (the best book-reading interface I've come across, but unfortunately they don't update the library anymore)
Cogs (fun little steampunk puzzle game)
Comixology (great comic book reader)
Diceworks (another great little steampunk game, this one kind of Bejewled-edy)
DISH Remote Access (allows me to view TV schedules and remotely set my DISH Network DVR to record)
Dungeon Hunter (great little derivative action RPG hack-'n-slasher)
Earthworm Jim (straight port of the classic 16-bit console game; this is love in app form)
Facebook (loads more quickly than the actual Facebook site for me)
Flashlight. (simple and straightforward)
Google Mobile (pretty much just bookmarks for my Google apps, but effective, nonetheless)
Hanged (interesting little variant on the classic Hangman game)
IMDb (because I am a movie geek)
iSteamTube (another steampunk puzzle game; not as great as the others, but still interesting)
Kindle for iPhone (OMGlove. This is what spurred me to want a Kindle or iPad. I can read again, yay!)
A Masterpiece Collection (very similar to Classics, but it actually updates; great interface, with page turns and little "swish" noises)
The Simpsons Arcade (nice little quasi-remake of the classic beat-'em-up arcade game)
Skype (though I don't use it much, since I've an iPod Touch, which doesn't have a built-in mic)
Stanza (another nice reading app, this one compatible with both e-book vendors and free sources like Project Gutenberg)
SteamPong (take a guess)
SteamPunk Hockey (essentially a steampunk-themed air hockey; 'tis cool)
Twitterrific (for quick Twitter login/reading)
The Weather Channel (quick access to more accurate/detailed weather)
3D Brain ('cause it's just cool)

As soon as I convince myself that I will actually type substantially on the iPod, I'm going to purchase Screenplay.

well, this is on my iPod and not an iPhone; so I hope I can still play....

Stanza, ereader tied to some commercial stores and able to upload free content from your laptop. Topnotch.
BBCReader - caches the website so you can read out of coverage
Netnewswire - caches RSS feeds so you can read out of coverage
BeeJive - Push based (online even when the app isnt running) instant messenger program
Internet Radio Box - streaming radio for te morning
TED - interesting lectures online
iverse/comics - comic stores
FaceBook
Google

Less regular usage:
Sudoku grab - can lift suduku from the newspaper for you
Canabalt - little zero-time-investment game
Zen bound - beautiful
Uniwar - multiplayer, cross platform, online, turn based RTS
Flixster - movie times, etc
London Bus, Tube Deluxe, National Rail - UK based public transport routeS & times
Skype

A few apps in particular that I like and have are (in no particular order):
Things (GTD task manager. Simple and fantastic)
Facebook (ties into facebook well)
Mint.com (for budgeting and such)
mSecure (for passwords)
Shazam (to find the name of that song)
Weight Watchers Mobile (if you have a WW monthly pass, it's really helpful)
Constitution (all US citizens should have a copy available)
Units (converts units)
Classics (now free!)

DS...do you like the sleepmaker apps? do they work?

I am also looking for a RPG game, got the Zenonia one, but will be finished with that soon. Anyone have one they like alot?

Lenas, where do you get the illigitimate apps..I want that irealquicksms one..drives me crazy to be doing something and get a text and I have to exit out to reply. Been looking for one in iTunes but can't find something that does this.

Bubblewrap is awsome!!!! I got this too!

It requires hacking your iPhone, and then you can get iPhone apps from places other than the iTunes store. The reason you can't find any that duplicate that functionality on the iTunes store is that it breaks the programming parameters that Apple lays down for its iTunes apps.

It honestly only takes 1 click to jailbreak an iPhone anymore.

I didn't say it was *hard.*

Just putting it out there :p

I honestly don't like using my iPhone without some of the jailbreak apps.

If you do this to your phone does it change anything? I don't know much about this..or how to do it.

Only adds to your phone. You lose zero functionality. If you ever have to make use of your phone's warranty, though, you'll have to reverse it first.

Also, the ability to do this depends on the version of iPhone you have. Both hardware (2g, 3g, 3gs) and software version.

Can you still use itunes if you jailbreak?

Yes. Like I said, you lose no functionality.
