What is your greatest app for your mobile, invented or uninvented?

Mine my calendar. (shockingly boring)

Why?


Because that would make our dining out choices easier, and our roller coaster riding easier, and it would just be cool.

As I told USACOMP, "because you are a nerd, d'uh."

I use the alarm clock on my phone when i'm staying at a hotel...some hotels have alarm clocks and others don't, and i don't necessarily set them right, so I learned to rely on the ol' phone.
I do not understand what I do. For what I want to do I do not do, but what I hate I do.

Everyone needs to give panoman a shot if they haven't already, splices multiple shots together for a panoramic shot on the fly.

Right now it's the organizer (calendar, notes, alarm), but if my phone would support gps or google maps or something like that, I would definitely love it 8) .

Indeed... the newest version (4.01) runs perfect on my Samsung WM6 phone. and Internet explorer mobile is much more useful then the "competitive" browsers once SPB has been installed.
