Dwayne, did you go out and buy the same phone I have? I told you it rocks!!

Let's see... These are my favorite apps.

wifi tether (rooted phones)
moxie (email)
applanet (arrrrr)
setcpu (overclocked to 1.8GHz)
dropbox
logmein
DocumentsToGo
calculator
CameraZoom
Winamp
wunderRadio
handcent sms
appmonster
CamCard (way cool. It takes a picture of business cards and adds all the info to your contacts)
EasyTether Pro
Clockwork Mod
UltraChron (stopwatch)
Smart App Protector (locks down certain apps with a password)
ScanLife (barcode scanner)
Bunch of games ;)

I love my Android powered phone. Anytime you can take a phone from 800MHz to a stable 1.8GHz and still be able to maintain battery life, you have to love the phone. It can do anything my friends' iPhones can do and then some. I'd say the biggest thing I love about my phone is the fact it runs widgets and not just icons on the screen. That is a huge help when you are monitoring the system.

Why yes you did and considering that you were with me in Vegas when my Galaxy S Vibrant walked away never to be seen again, I had to get the G2 when you showed me how awesome it was.

Hey Anthony! BMW! BMW! BMW! :xyxthumbs: (inside joke)

One I just downloaded and been playing with is Torque . It's used so you can monitor certain engine functions on your phone . You need to buy a OBD2 adapter and it's send the signal from the car too your phone using blue tooth .

I saw someone using something like that on their iPhone a couple years ago with their Mini Cooper. That was kind of sweet. I've been looking for something like that for Android for awhile now, so I'll definitely have to check that one out! Thanks for the tip!

For what? Tapatalk is amazing, and more diverse than any specific forum app would be.

Unless you meant for purchasing/scanning items you need to restock....THAT would be awesome!

Yes - there are a few tethering applications available... my favorite is PDANET

If you have one with a wifi hotspot built in, you can simply root the phone to have the wifi for free...

Rooting allows you too communicate directly with the phones kernel which controls everything... you can trick it into thinking it is receiving the signal from the cell network to activate that feature, thus allowing you to use it... FOR FREE!! :dblthumb2:
