I agree about the keyboard. That was something I was concerned about but it is great. It is better than the Ipod touch too, I agree.

I was wondering abou the display in the Moment, It has gotten rave reviews.

A couple more apps I like and have:

Open Table
Live football scores (nfl and ncaa)
iStockManager (for TD Ameritrade account holders)
Where
Handcent SMS
Chicktionary (addicted to it, good to pass time)
Ringdroid (for making ringtones)

I am liking Remember the Milk. I can't believe there isn't a built-in task manager. But it is good.

Also a bit surprised there is no support for Google Docs. Kind of crazy. I'll end up having to download Documents to Go.

Ah, yes Handcent is a nice replacement for the built in messages app.
I used ringdroid, got my ringtones (doctor who theme), then uninstalled it. But I usually stick with ringtone, otherwise I sit there wondering what the hell that noise is, Oh damn it's my new ringtone.

Nice recommendation for WHERE. I think I'll find it pretty useful now and then.

I'm in the market for a new phone and am considering one of the 'Droids'. A question I have for you guys is do I need to subscribe to the verizon navigator option to use all the Android map features? Or will it work with just having a 'data' plan from Verizon?

It just works. NO Verizon navigator necessary. :)

Found a neat Augmented Reality app called AugSatNav. I have not experienced Google Nav yet, but this one is pretty cool.

TivoRemote is one I found last night. 99cents for a wifi based tivo remote. Works VERY well with my TivoHD's.

Last new one for me was the CNet Shopper Saavy; and a game - Labryninth Lite.

I am tempted to try SLideScreen, which I saw on AndroidCentral the other day. It is a home screen replacement, so I probably won't, but it might be worth looking at.

EDIT: Found out SlideScreen can be run just as an app and not a home replacement (I like the home screen), so I think I'll give it a try.

I downloaded SlideScreen, and it is pretty cool; although I am not using it as a home screen replacement.

If it had integration with Facebook and with non-gmail email it would be even better, but its a cool way to view a lot of information. I apparently have satguys feeds set in google reader as it brings up some satguy threads. Also pretty cool.

Anything special to get this running? I keep getting force closes on my Moment and a friend gets it on his droid too.
