    I use a lot of the Google apps especially, be it native on the phone to cloud integration with those available on the web with my Google account.

    Beyond that there's radio streaming: Pandora, Iheartradio, and a few German radio stations (search "hit radio" in the Market). Also, Facebook, Twitter, Foursquare, Google Maps/Navigation and Sprint's Telenav product, the Weather Channel app, and USAA's banking app.

    For gaming, check out:

    ProjectInf - MMPOG, pretty kewl
    Gensoid - classic Sega Genesis games
    SNesoid - classic Super Nintendo games

    These currently are the only three that I have on there now and boy, they sure do keep me entertained at the airport, meetings, and or where ever I may happen to be standing picking my nose

    Here are the ones I can't live without...

    Google Listen - For Audio podcasts. I don't use the radio OR my iPod in the car anymore.
    Job Log - Keeps track of how much time I spend on different graphic design projects.
    File Manager - Self explanatory
    Bible (YouVersion) - Fantastic Bible app.
    FastReader - RSS Reader. Syncs with Google Reader
    SpringPad - for notes and stuff. I used to use Evernote, SpringPad is MUCH better.
    Seesmic - Twitter
    SwiFTP and AndFTP - Two awesome FTP clients. One connects to an FTP server from you phone, the other creates an FTP server on your phone to access from a computer.

    And the previously mention Snesoid.

    FatBooth- Hilarious!! Take pictures of your friend and make there faces fat
    Auto Task Killer
    Juice Defender
    Sound Hound- Great for music, will listen to songs you play and tell you all the info you need to know about them.
    Yelp- Great for business reviews and finding places near or far. IE looking for a place to eat, will tell you all the nearby places, gives you a star average, you can read reviews and will give you basic information on the place.

    You Version Bible - best ever!
    SoundHound - identifies song title and artist
    Friencaster Pro - better Facebook alternative
    Free Music Downloader
    Ultra Notes - password note keeper
    Shop Savvy - barcode price comparison
    Jango - streams personalized radio to your device
    those are my main apps besides the two I'm sure I'll be banned to mention!

    - mVideoPlayer – my favorite app when it comes at watching movie on the phone. It can play mkv, avi, mp4, m4v and 3gp files and supports subtitle
    - Titanium Backup - backup your apps (paid apps also) + their associated data and restore when your need. Eg. When you wipe out your phone/install another firmware (Requires ROOT)
    - Watchdog Task Manager Lite - app which monitors your device and when an application malfunctions and starts using all your CPU power (without a reason), you'll be able to kill it - the only thing you need, Android doesn't require a Task Manger
    - Astro File Manager - probably the best app to manage your files on your phone without the need for a PC
    - Beautiful Widgets - great widgets for Android with weather and clock
    - Backgrounds HD Wallpapers - this app helps you find background wallpapers & contact themes
    - Launcher Pro - great apps launcher which makes your device smoother and adds cool features
    - ShopSavvy Barcode Scanner - my choice when it comes to scan barcodes on CDs, books and so on
    - handyCalc Calculator - do you need to perform complex mathematical equations or functions ? Use this
    - Evernote - probably the best cloud-based app you can find to helps you to take notes, capture photos, create to-do lists and so on
