Storm live wallpaper free. Pretty good live wallpaper if you want lightning bolts and rain clouds in your background.

Cranium Crusher was an interesting .99 game. Took a bit a thinking but was fun. For .99 anyway.

There was a couple on vacation that used an app on the Iphone that alerts them of movement in their house through webcams. They stopped the burglary from Dallas while their home was in Connecticut. I think droid should come out with an app where you can control mounted machine guns in your home. Id buy it.

My ADT system does this. I decided not to pay for the machine gun option, though.

Does anyone have a good mileage/trip logger application?
Meaning, keeping track of daily miles for business purposes for the IRS?

Thanks for the link. Interesting site.

I was referring to tracking mileage for business expense and tax records.
Like the first two in this list:
mileage tracker

I wish there were more reviews, and wondered if anyone was using either of them, or something similar.

If car manufacturers would make it an intrinsic function in a gps unit in cars, with auto-reading of the odometer and recording of locations visited, and include ability to email/upload data to my lovely accountant (Mrs.) daily, I would be tempted to buy that option in a car.
Keeping records properly stinks....

Let's keep this thread focused on apps. Doing well so far.
Maybe start a different thread about that?

I just spent a week testing ALARM CLOCK PLUS V2.
My wife has the Dock and she hates the way they changed the alarm clock with the 2.2 update.
So I tested a few. I have the free version of this one and wound up buying it for the wife's Droid. She likes it alot. It was built off the Droid clock so it is reliable. Infinitely more customizable then the stock one. If you use your Droid as an alarm clock: recommend.

(MODS can we add DROID to the spellcheck? lol)
