The one that tells you how high above sea level you are.

Ignore alQur'an, I use it as a reference for all the despicable things religion is full of. Or you can get it, it's a nicely done app. Too bad the creator is Muslim. And yes, I track my girlfriend's menstrual cycle.

The only non-default apps I actually use more than once a week are

Minnesota Public Radio (check what song is playing  on any of their stations)
Shazam - listens to a song and identifies it
PayPal - obvious
eBay
Wells Fargo

I guess I use the IMDB and Wikipanion apps occaisonally (although their real sites in Safari are better). I feel like I under-use my iphone, but it's impossible to effectively use the fucking thing when it's setup as a Start Menu and not an OS with a desktop (downloading an email attachment and editing it, then saving it to attach to an email later, should be intuitive as shit).

Is jailbreaking iphones still painless? If I get a 4 I'd be interested in jailbreaking it to have access to some legitimately useful apps (mainly an ssh client and file manager, free tethering would be nice too)

I use regularly:
-AccuWeather
-Facebook
-UniBus
-Meebo
-TapTap Revenge
-LightBike

I would use Google Mobile a lot, but I like the way Google News is laid out in the mobile browser version better than in the app.

[Thyme]

well i guess this is a "what non-standard apps do you use" thread now

iBooks (use it mostly entirely for PDFs)
Echofon (i lurves mah twitter)

I have a few games too, all got them for free with that Free Game a Day thing OpenFeint is doing. So one may want to get the OpenFeint app as well so they know which game is made free on that day.
