First I'd like to say thanks, these forums have been very helpful. I'd like to start a dedicated thread for Ermine apps alone stating which apps have been found to be compatible and which ones haven't. I've also found that android games from the market are pretty much unplayable because of slow frame rates. I'm not sure if this is an Ermine limitation or a pocket edge cpu limitation. I have stared apps which I think are must haves. I will also edit this first post to take into account any additions other people make.

Compatible Apps:

*Amazon market - a place to get android applications
*Dropbox - Share files acroos multiple computers and over the web
*Opera Mini 6 - Alternative internet browser (other browsers I hear work too)
Dolphin Browser HD - Alternative Browser
*FlexT9 Text Input - swype like keyboard and an improvement of the stock keyboard.
*pulse news reader - excellent news aggregate
NewsRob - News Reader
*Facebook - Mobile interface to facebook
