Agree about the Sky+ app.
Also:
TripIt - travel booking details all in one place
Evernote - allows you to save information, notes & clips and internet pages all in one place
TuneIn radio - VAST collection of radio stations all over the world, all in one place.

Note the theme - 'all in one place'!:D

And lastly either Shazam, or Navigon.

I would have said Trapster, but despite dozens of emails to their 'support', I'm still getting notifications for Germany, and not Ireland, and they can't figure it out, even with a new phone and new account. And I'm not the only one either.

I thought jailbreaking was ruled in states as legal but naturally installing paid apps for free was illegal...?

Useful, you say.. right.. entertaining would be another list entirely

HulloMail - stops me paying three to access my voice mail
Whatsapp - drastically reduces my text messaging cost, particularly with those overseas
C25K - helps me do my couch to 5k and keep an eye on where I am
Tapatalk - I manage a forum that is a pain in the behind to read on the small screen without this
Ulster bank RI - to make sure my laser card can cover the abuse it's about to receive

If you have a problem with a post, report it and a mod will deal with it. We can't be expected to spot everything.

I'd also like to direct you to the Boards.ie 101 thread: http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2055461510

It is against the rules to argue with a moderator action in such a way that it drags a discussion off-topic from its original goal (short: never argue with a mod in-thread - it almost always leads to a ban). Always attempt to message the moderator via the Private Messaging system before making a scene out of something.

I'm closing this thread now - there's a sticky above for recommending apps.
