I got a Tour about 2 months ago and about three days ago my brother got the HTC Hero. The Android phones have a much larger selection then BlackBerry App World. With the Blackberry App famine I would like some of everybody's personal favorite Apps.

It would seem that the Android platform has alot of different apps available, but when I went thru their app "market" I didn't really see a whole lot that made me say "Oh I wish I could get that on my BB!". I don't use a bunch of different apps, I think I've only got 6-8 installed on my device, the one that is used most is the Facebook app, and BerryBuzz, just because it works automatically, pretty much becomes part of the OS (not really, but it feels that way).
Berry Weather - I had been using Weather Bug, which I really liked, but since I learned about the new features of the latest update, this is now my fave weather app. Kinda pricey, but worth it.
Calorie Counter by Fat Secret - FREE app where you can track your daily calories as well as your exercise. It's a great tool, but I wish the exercise tracking was a lil more robust.
BAQ Tracker Mobile - if you like to have a drink (or two or three) after a hard day @ work like I do, this app is essential for knowing when you're not ok to drive.
Drive Safely - reads your texts & emails out loud when you're on the road. The free version only reads 25 words, though. I bought the full version & I think it's totally worth it.
Berry Buzz - lets you personalize the color of your LED light for various notifications.
It lets my Blackberry do what no other phone can. I can tell exactly what kind of notification I have from across the room without even turning the phone on!

Best. app. ever.
Heh, I love berrybuzz too...but that's stretching it a bit. I'm sure any phone w/ a LED indicator has a similar app. I had message sentinel on my Sidekick, which did the same thing as berrybuzz.
Costs money, but worth it. I'm not even a heavy IM guy, but it's like all my iphone & android friends (and facebook folk) can get ahold of me as easily as BBM.
