I've got a HTC Hero and couldn't be happier. I use NewsRob and get all my Google Reader feeds right on the phone. HTC:s built in email app is also nice. As for games I've installed chess by Aart J.C Bik. For navigation I use CoPilot Live. For reading I use Aldiko. For music I use spotify (unbeatable) and for magazine reading I use Issuu. For podcasting I find DoggCatcher to be the best. With the Android market its endless of possibilities of apps to install. Most of my work colleagues have gone for the new HTC desire with a bigger screen and Android 2.1 but I'm holding out for a phone that will get the new SiRFstar IV GPS chipset that's said to have huge improvements over the old one.

My previous mobile was not a smartphone so it took some time getting used to the Hero (especially since there's no physical keys) but now I wouldn't turn back to a regular mobile. One thing though, smartphones drains a lot more battery. I can use it actively for a day but then I have to charge it. If I don't use it as much the battery usually lasts me over the weekend.
