Amazing astronomy apps: GoSkyWatch (free) and Star Walk ($4.99)
They use your coordinates to show you what's in the sky above you. Updates as you move and rotate. Wow. Even if you're not into astronomy, the freebie is very cool to check out.

I have loads of apps, but nothing sexy. All practical. Love the reader apps and news apps most. I love WolframAlpha for its geeky stats and such, but I found the app more limiting than going to the Web site.
