Root Removable bloatware?

Could someone be so kind as to make a list of removable bloatware? I know there are lists around but, seems as though they changed the names of some of the bloat apps.

Generally anything listed as metro (including browser)

If you don't use it try freezing it before removing.

I removed everything except the stuff we know not to delete, like talk and phone ect.. the only thing I kept from metro was the metro browser because that's what Google play store uses by default.

Ill make a list of removables later tonight for everyone.

Also, when you remove the nuances app your phone will go into a force close loop. After deleting it you have to restart the phone to make it stop.
 
I backed up /system/app/Mms.apk with Titanium Backup Pro, and then un-installed it, because I use handset as my main messaging app. However, after uninstalling, handset is unable to send/receive MMS messages.

Titanium is unable to restore the app, it just sits there and I have to shut it down. I had to restore the Mms.apk/.odex from the partition dump provided in another thread.

So Titanium users, be forewarned...
