Arrow Three apps you can't live without...

... well, maybe you could live without them, but you wouldn't want to.

If I had to pick three it'd be

1) Pandora
2) Evernote
3) Beatmaker

I'm curious to hear what the rest of you would pick.

well...

galcon - play a couple of quick games a day, and love the online multiplayer games

Apples Music App, the one that came with the ipod, i know its not technically a third party app, but i am constantly using it

papi jump, just because i have a drinking bet on # of attempts to beat a current high score, if you attempt but dont beat it, you have to drink///who knew it was a drinking game [pee ess, i dont do it every day haha]

there are tons of fun apps, but none compare to the first two for amount of use everyday

i use these once a week

beer bounce is fun
cybeicman
realsoccer 09
Culture
MotionX poker
Air sharing

1) Maps - Not a 3rd party app, but i use it constantly for just about everything, especially with the improved functions of the 3g.

2) Stanza - Having a nearly endless library of classic books to read right at your fingertips boggles my mind. I have a substantial collection of modern releases as well and it's super easy to send them right to my phone.

3) Ambiance - I fall asleep easier with white noise, especially during long travel, so this is a must for me.

My runner ups would be Shazam, Pandora, Movies, and Weatherbug.

I have 7 pages of apps, so this was pretty difficult to narrow down.

- Crash Kart: It's always entertaining and you can always try to beat your own high score. Not to mention, the graphics are awesome.

- Line Rider: I was so happy to see that this game had become available for the iPhone. I think it's easier to use on the iPhone than it is on the comp., and you can check out other people's courses.

- Labyrinth: One of the best anti-boredom games. Idea is simple, but the levels are difficult and equal tons of fun.

Other games frequented:

- Anaconda
- AquaForest
- Sextuple Word Challenge
- Cube Runner
- Expando
- iCopter
- Pandora
- PapiJump
- reMovem
- Rolo
- TanZen
- Toy Bot
- Tris (which isn't available anymore)
- Tunnels

SplashID - I don't know if this is the best secure password, etc. app, but it's the one I've been using for years on my Palm and desktop, and now I have it on my iPod and it works great (well, after 2.1 update there is a minor display glitch when entering your password. Keyboard doesn't show up until you tap in the password field. Otherwise works flawlessly.)

Galcon - simply a fantastic multiplayer internet-play game. Good single player, but internet play takes it over the top

Tuner - I listen to Indie Pop Rocks almost every night as I go to sleep Incidentally, while Tuner doesn't have a built-in timer (and I wish it did), you can get the same effect via the built-in clock app. Start up the clock app, switch to timer mode and set what it should do after the timer expires to "Sleep iPod". Start the timer and then start up Tuner and go to sleep via your favorite internet stream....

crunc, I actually registered so that I could reply to this (and of course list my top three apps). Just so you know, SomaFM has an iPhone specific site which allows you to listen to their streams using Safari. This has the benefit of being able to play in the background as you use other apps! It's worth looking into at least.

As for my top three (third party) apps:
1. Cuberunner
2. AirSharing
3. Stanza/Balance tie (I use Balance a lot, but Stanza is just too cool!)
