So, I just upgraded to myTouch 3G from T-mobile with Google Android.

Anybody already on-board with their G1? Post your favorite apps! A brief description will be appreciated.

Mine:

- TasKiller: Kill your open apps in one simple click. You can also review open apps.
- ShopSavy: Barcode scanner, search the scanned item online.
- Mileage: Keep track of your MPG.
- Where: Find restaurants, movies, gas prices, etc.

Hmm…

Instead of task killer I use Advanced Task Manager, it is $1 but its my most used app so I shelled out the buck for it. It works amazingly.

I like

Babbler (the only actual usable facebook app)  
Tune Wiki (Music player with MANY great features)  
K-9 (mass email box, only app I know of that is compliant with hotmail)  
Phonalyzer (gives you call data and statistics)  
The Weather Channel (duh)  
Quick Wi-Fi (for quick on and off)  
Flashlight (I actually use it soooo much)
