Hello, I'm looking for good apps for the Moto Droid X, to make it run better and save battery life, also wondering about task killers or managers, or some app that works, file manager, help!

One bite at a time...
Welcome to the Android Forums!
Honestly you do not typically need a task killer on the Droid X... Android 2.2 does a pretty reasonable job managing active and inactive memory on the phone. In many cases an automatic task killer will only increase memory and battery utilization as the app and the phone compete.
To increase battery life on the DX, go through all of your home screens and remove any widgets that aren't actively being used. Widgets use battery whether or not you reference them. Also, disable auto brightness on the phone and set the screen brightness to the lowest level you can comfortably read. Lastly go into battery profiles and select a more conservative profile.
