Seeing as everybody's posting apps on the 'whyPhone' thread, I thought why not have an thread devoted to iPhone Apps.
Recommend good ones, inform what ones to keep away from.
Anyways, I start with Shazam and Wattpad.
Shazam: More for the musicy type and for finding out what that song you've been listening too is.
Wattpad: For the book-ish person who likes to read on the go, includes most modern books and everything is free, however a few tweaks to be made. Note: For finding new books on Wattpad (Harry Potter e.t.c) you'll be better off googling the name of the book and adding 'on Wattpad' at the end
iPhone Apps
http://blogs.wsj.com/digits/2009/11/09/ ... e-version/
The existing versions will remain free (for how long?), so you might want to rush and get it!
Anyway, ummm... *tries to ignore embarassingly large quantity of frivolous games etc*... Skype, London tube/bus map, tomtom, Shazam of course... there aren't actaully that many USEFUL apps to download.

When looking for a app to read books on, I looked at Stanza, but ended up with Wattpad, because all is free and you can get every book on it! The in app search is not very good, but if you search for the book on Google, you get a code and you paste it into the search bar, and it'll be the only result to save. Also, there is a version for normal mobiles which you can download.
