To get back on topic, a couple of apps to add here that actually do something:

1) Wolfram Alpha:Very cool,got it free @ AMAZON.Also available @ ANDROID MARKET.

2) BARNACLE Wi-Fi TETHER

3) Wi-Fi STATUS: Helps prevent your battery from being drained.
 
It was once available on the market before it was taken down. But you can still download it through 4shared or google

1) Android Assistant - 14 different tools and does not require root.
Android Assistant(14 features) - Android app on AppBrain

2) Root Explorer - Like a file manager but with way more power/user control. Requires root.

3) Screenshot - For having the ctrl + Prt sc of the Android world! Requires root.
Note: Most people like the Screenshot It app instead of this one. I didn't, It just didn't give me the ease and feel I liked.

4) MixZing - I choose this because it's got an EQ and it's a free music app. I also like the different size widgets it provides. A little bit of a battery killer but for me it's worth it. Does not require root.
MixZing Media Player - Android app on AppBrain

5) Weather & Toggle Widgets - I like this because of it's animated weather and skin choices on the market (Clock, Weather, Widget skins). Also, If you had problems with the user market on the paid for apps like Beautiful Widget, This app has it's skin market in the ACTUAL market instead. Which is why I switched. Does not require root.
I also recommend getting the Weather Widget Forecast Addon. (Free in market) ^_^

9) Ultra Keyboard - I like this because it's got basic typing as well as "Tracing" which is almost identifiable with Swype. You can choose a different skin, Customize the ones they've got or even make your own. It's fully packed with different options! Does not require root.

Based on your recommendation, I checked out MixZing (I've been using PowerAmp) and I really like it. The *ONE* feature that means the most to me, being about to play my music by folder, is a lot easier in MixZing. The EQ doesn't have as many presets as PowerAmp but that may be b/c it's the free version.

I tried SD Speed Increase and I got an error message that it couldn't write the file. I don't know what that means.

Best useful app I've run across. I have all my apps (well over 100) organized into folders, and I only have to use 2 homescreens. Instead of scrolling through the App Dwarer, I click on the Games folder, and all my games are there. Tools folder has all my system apps, etc.

Im going to look into that now...

You do the same thing by just making a folder and dragging the apps into that.

I agree about SD Speed Increase & Go Launcher. I just started using Link2SD and that has made the biggest difference. The phone runs 2 - 3 times faster now that I've cleared out so much of the memory. It's amazing.
 
PdaNet is prob my most used app. I don't have acess to any other internet and it's steady and reliable. It has a SMS agent that acts like an IM thingy and while connected it charges the phone. Win-win!
