Flight control - very simple and addictive

Definitely agree with that - very addictive!

Wordwarp is a dead simple, cheap, anagram game. Good if you like that sort of thing :$

I think you just missed out on the Puzzlequest 1 + 2 deal (it was free this weekend). Possibly the most addictive game ever! It's probably worth the £3 but there's a free trial version to try anyway.

Logitech Touchmouse is really cool - the iPhone works as a keyboard / mouse for your PC. Worths flawlessly for me, great for watching films as a remote control. Free.

Airvideo is pretty cool if you want to watch videos (saved on your computer) on your iPhone. I haven't really found a use for it, but if it's something you could make use of, then it works perfectly.

Here's a few I like to use, some free, some not!

Tunein radio - listen to almost any radio station that is broadcast over the net, great when you get bored of what tunes you've got saved on the phone!

Vouchercloud - like them 2 for 1 vouchers and money off ones you can get on the net but you don't have to print them off just show the voucher on your phone and hey presto, plus it shows what offers are on nearby you through gps!

Crystal Maze - purely for the soundboard and Richard O'Briens classic "Will you start the fans please!" line

Ebay - never miss an auction again!

I'm a filthy jailbreak whore, but of the normal app store apps:

Whatsapp messenger - Free messaging, media messaging etc using the internet. Anybody with limited texts would benefit

Ebay and paypal - Nuff said

Crush the castle - Awesome little game, kinda like angrybirds but with a catapult

IAmBeatBox - Pretty fun to have a play with, give it a go, I think it's free

Hipstamatic - Camera App, Makes some really cool photos that look like they've been taken on old school instamatic cameras

KFC locator - For all your KFC locating needs :)

Spotify, Twitter, Facebook, Flickr — all obvious.

PingChat2! — free iPhone-to-iPhone messaging.

Sleep Cycle — genius alarm clock app that wakes you up when you're ready.

Guardian — news.

Dropbox — the iPhone app for the amazing drop box.com web service.

Evernote — clever little notes app.

Genius, Gorillacam — brilliant camera apps.

AroundMe — find pubs etc based on your current location.

iPlayer, TV Catchup — head to these sites in Safari and add them to your home screen!

Layar — like AroundMe but with augmented reality.

thetrainline — train times.

0870 — get premium rate phone numbers for free.

Family Guy Uncensored — great game.

FML — laugh at others' misfortune.

WhatsApp — like MSN for iPhones.

That's just some of 100+ apps I have installed.

Guessing I'll get shot down if I start the same thread for Android?

Can't think of many that haven't already been mentioned... and I don't use my iPod much since I got my phone.

Wi-finder - for scanning wireless APs

BMW M Sport G meter (or something like that) - 0-60 times, quarter mile time, lateral G etc.

Friend on mine had an app which was an all in one speedo/speed camera detector/fuel guage/mileometer for his motorbike.

He used it as his motorbike (like many) doesn't actually have a fuel gauge so he could work out when to fill up without having to worry about resetting the trip meter that is on the bike.

Also as it was an older bike it runs on an analogue speedo, so having this GPS aided app gave him a much more accurate speedo.

And then the speed camera detector is an extra bonus I suppose.

Some others:

Flixster - Instant cinema times, automatically finds your closest cinemas and you can add favourites. Very good.

TVguide - What it says on the tin, easier than going into epg mode on freeview.

Geodefense - Strategy type game, very addictive.

Runkeeper - GPS tracking for when running or cycling. Tells you how fast your going, avg speed, time, distance and at the end you can view it on a map and upload it to the website. Supper app. The Paid version is £5.99 I think but it's worth it if you run, even walk or cycle for exercise. It'll auto play a playlist and give you voice updates of your time etc. There is a free version with not as many features.

Skate it - Pretty good considering it's on a phone.

And this has been said before but it's the best app going and that is Shazam.
