Looking for interesting I-pod apps
So i leased my soul to greg, a lesser daemon of darn, and I bought a 8GB touch at Frys for $180 (195 after tax) this is a "cheap" purchase for me as I live in europe and in Euros I paid about 120e for a new ipod :)

This is my first apple (new) purchase EVER!
Generally i buy 2nd had if I have a need for an apple product.

Anyway... it's cute, any recommendations on apps to pick up?

Im generally looking for FREE, but if it's decent enough I'll pay for an app.

Many thanks in advance for your valued suggests.

1. Depends what you want it for
If you are a fiction writer. Aeuteureist works... needs the latest version of the OS

Notebooks is a good one for note taking

Now on the free... Stanza, and Kindle are great book readers, B&N so-so...

Oh and I find Wunder Radio to be one of the best buys ever, I use that sucker EVERY DAY... even if I had to pay for it.

Pure office, docs to go and my writing nook are also pretty good, and the latter is cheap... uses google docs

3. Stanza... lots of free classic books. Shazam...it listens to a song and identifies it.
Bubble Wrap. Nobody can resist Bubble Wrap.
Good Reader, costs a couple of bucks. A PDF reader that can sync wirelessly.
Star Wars Light Saber. Wave the iPhone around and the familiar buzz and sparks make noise. It's necessary in the Dr's office, bank, office meetings, church, etc.
OW! My Balls!. Kick Jim off the top of the building and rack his nads on as many obstacles on his way down to the street. Bonus points for hitting birds with sharp beaks!

6. there is a free photoshop.
more for the phone than the touch, but if you carry pics around, it is a free little app that does the things you most want to do with pics. there is a free photoshop.com picture bucket that it will connect to.
