Don't know if this will work or even help but I wanted a thread that listed top 2 or 3 Prevail apps for a specific category. I'm hoping this will make it easier for people who need help choosing or who just want to see if there's any new apps that they haven't heard of.

List your app after the appropriate category and I'll try to keep 1st post updated.

Opera mobile crashes for me so I use opera mini without issues on my Prevail. red laser works well on the prevail. I use Aldiko for ebooks.I use tweekdeck for facebook and twitter. I use winamp for music since it allows me to wireless synch my music from my pc running winamp when both are on the same wireless network.

Got all the usual suspects as previously mentioned, but just had to add this to the mix.
GrooveIP voice over ip thru google voice
I live in a cell signal dead zone and rely heavily on my phone when out of the office.
With this app I can still send and receive calls at home thru wifi and call quality is excellent much better than even when I have a good boost signal.

May be old news to some but to me this is the app of the century!

Oh yeah it is a paid app $4.99 but now that I know how well it works I'd readily throw down whatever they asked for it.

Good INFO. UncleBud ! Thanks !! :D:D:D
 
no monthly or per call charges, just need a google voice acct. and has to be tied to gmail. I originally had google voice with a yahoo acct. and had to merge a new gmail acct into existing to get it to login initially. My google voice number is the only number I've ever given out the last couple years I use it for my business number especially so I can get my biz calls on any phone I forward GV to.
