    I don't have any utility app recommendations that haven't already been listed, but I do have a few games that I have found to be pretty awesome:

    Alchemy - this is not the alchemy that you may be thinking of. This is a great little casual game that you can pick up and play for 5 minutes at a time (although I often get sucked in for much longer). You start with 4 elements - earth, water, fire, and air. You drag and drop the icon together to make new "elements". The long-term goal is to unlock them all...I think now they are up to about 400. Trust me, it's worth trying.

    Bubble Blast 2 - simple but addictive puzzle game with roughly 1000 playable levels. Currently my favorite android game.

    Bistro Cook - very fun but can be fast paced and at this point I kinda suck at it, but it's still fun.

    Traffic Jam - fun and simple puzzle game involving moving cars and trucks around to get the target car through the exit.

    Oh, and a non-game - I use Craigsnotifica as a craigslist crawler. Great for notifying me when an ad with my desired keyword is posted, and very easy to set up.

    Same as Swae, I can't add any other apps to the list that aren't already there. But, for games, well...

    Robo Defense - similar to lemmings, but instead you build mazes to destroy'em. Incredibly addictive and continues to be challenging as you climb the levels.

    I've been dabbling with many more, but Robo Defense is probably the best one so far. Others so far include, Gem Miner, GalaxIR (modified risk), Guns 'n Glory (a mix of robo defense and red dawn redemption), Star Traders (RPG), and Island Settlers (Tile strategy with dice)
