After a brief time using the new Work Email for Exchange email, I went back to K-9 Mail. It does IMAP well, it has a good feature set, It keeps my email in sync with Exchange (which Work Email didn’t do frequently), and it’s free. If you have to do Exchange, do it with K-9.

I keep going back to the Weather Channel app. I’ve tried WeatherBug, Accuweather, etc. But, the Weather Channel app works the best. However, it now features adMob ads at the bottom. It doesn’t help performance.

I still use Greed regularly. I still like it. And the price has gone down, so it’s an even better deal.

Locale still works well for managing my ringer volume, etc. depending on my location. It’s a little funky to set up, but it works well when you figure it out.

I’ve been using AppManager and TasKiller for a few weeks, and I like both. I recommend both apps.

OI Safe still has custody of my passwords, but I’m looking at alternatives.

T-Mobile MyAccount is an app I don’t use a lot, but I like having it.

I’ve been using the new FaceBook app. I’m not much of a FaceBook user, and it works well enough for me. I’ve tried several Twitter clients. Twitdroid and TritterRide were on my phone for a while. But, as little as I use Twitter, I found it was easier to just put a bookmark on my home page and use the web site directly.

And lastly, Mobile Defense by Neevo. I like this app so far. I’m looking forward to the backup option and remote wipe. For free, it’s a start.

Probably the thing I use the most is the Cyanogen ROM image. It brings the MyTouch apps to the G1, including the very nice power control widget. Along with the CM Updater, it was worth the upgrade.

Oh, and I can’t forget the Retro Clock and Retro Date widgets. They bring back that 1978 vintage “digital clock” look. If only I could get that annoying “bleat” alarm sound for my phones alarm…

1. Greed – I am a GReader addict, and this app just feeds my dependency. It’s the only app I’ve paid for. It’s worth your $5 if you use GReader.
2. Locale – This does a great job of putting the location based capabilities of Android to good use.
3. Weather Channel – Still one of my most used apps.
4. PktAuctions eBay – This is a really nice eBay app. It is easy to use, and it works great.
5. Ring Control – This was the first app I installed. I am biased, a good friend of mine wrote it. The paid version adds new functionality, i’ve stuck with the free version.
6. OI Safe – This app is an upgraded replacement for Password Safe. Still works well. My old favorite eWallet is now available for Android, but not at the magic price of free.
7. Google Finance – This has replaced Quote Pro.
8. K-9 – This has gotten better since my last review. It alerts properly, even when the phone is locked.
9. ConnectBot – On the rare occasions that I need to SSH into a server, and my laptop is miles away, this one works.
10. Handstand – I don’t use this as often as Greed, but it’s still a nice app.
11. ShopSavvy – Still cool. I used it today at the local Microcenter, saved myself $30.
