    Has anyone found a widget (because I haven't) that will enable me to turn on/off Meteor internet? I mostly use wifi but would like an option to switch on 3g and off again.

    Also could anyone recommend a good backup app? Just had to reset the phone, and it was a major pain to re-install everything.

    In widgets - settings you will find individual on/off widgets for wifi, mobile network, bluetooth, gps and airplane mode :) There is also a combo one containing them all as well.

    Mybackup is a great backup program.

    "Toggle Data Widget", it's not exactly pretty but it does what it's supposed to.

    APNDroid is a great option for toggling mobile data, been using it since the first day I got my phone (on a prepay plan with no add-on)
