Am buying the LG Optimus V. What are the must have accessories? Also, I plan to use Bluetooth in my car - anything special I should know bout that?
Thanks for your help

A car charger is needed if you drive a lot--and especially if you are using Bluetooth.
A case is good for protection.
I thought a screen protector was a necessity, but ruined mine before it got on there and the screen is holding up well. (I still plan to get one, though)
A larger micro sd card--you are eventually going to get one, so plan now =D

Gel case(easy to pull off if you need to get to the battery).screen protector(my first one was the Invisa-Shield,but it was to thick for the touch capacitive screen,and was driving me nuts having to constantly mash on the screen to do anything)car charger,car cradle/dock. A decent headset(the stock are so pathetic).8g SD card. I bought a Motorola visor mount bluetooth so I wouldn't have that annoying earpiece that you forget to take off at the worst times.It turns itself off when you get out of range,then back on when in range(great for stopping at the convenience store). You just turn it on and forget it. Once a week I charge it up(I can use the Motorola car charger to charge my "V",and my "V's" wall charger to charge the Motorola). It allowed me to sync all my phone contacts to it for voice dial. You can find them at Best Buy and I think WalMart.
I have a car mount (cheap one works great) and car charger, I use these a lot. My car mount is on the vent because I only run AC through the vents (heat I prefer on floor or defrost or both) so the phone gets cooled when running, and it's out of the sun much more than it is on my windshield or dashboard.
I have extra batteries (2) and charger, also cheap from ebay, and very rarely use them - pretty much only when camping away from power for 2-3-4 days.
I have a hard case on all the time (also cheap ebay one). No screen protector. Not a scratch yet but it doesn't knock around a bag with keys or sand or pens or change either. Your mileage may vary.
I have real earpods for music/movies.
I have a bicycle mount that holds it on my handlebars and protects it from shock and rain, I use that to map where i am or deal with music or whatever. I think that was about $15-20 on ebay, probably my most expensive accessory
