I am currently using ReaddleDocs. It is a multiple format file viewer, while it does not do Epub yet it does PDFs pretty well including one with pictures. It also remembers your spot in all the files you have been viewing so you do not lose your spot when reading. It also has a folder based storage system instead of a flat file system. You can email files both into and out of ReaddleDoc using it browser/email sub app, or save an attachment from Safari to ReaddleDocs.

It currently supports
MSOffice 03 and 07 for Word Excel and Powerpiont
Apple Iworks Pages. Numbers and Keynote
PDF. Htm. HTML. Rtf rtfd
Jpeg jpg png gif tiff
Mp3. Mp4. Mov and a few others

The only down side I have see is no select and copy out of DeaddleDocs and no annotation capability. It is strictly a viewer.

Kindle app
Solitaire
Safari (only when I'm away from my iMac)

There are so many it's hard to mention just 3... so I'll cheat and give you 3 lists:

The 3 I use the most for reading:
1. iBooks - warts and all, it's the easiest for my many non-DRM epubs
2. Zinio - I have 3 magazine subscriptions through them. They have worked very hard to address the initial release concerns. The current version (1.5) is superb.
3. Goodreader - if it only read archived PDFs it'd be perfect instead of only nearly so.

The 3 non-readers I use the most:
1. IMDB - very nicely formatted for the iPad. If you watch movies or TV this is all you need.
2. Airvideo - quick and easy video converter that recognizes all formats and transcodes and streams (or converts for syncing through iTunes) even HD mkvs perfectly. It will even streams from your home PC through the internet in a pinch although I wouldn't do that through 3G on a limited plan
3. BBC News - very well implemented news-highlights from around the world plus BBC radio feed streamer.

My 3 favorite time wasters:
1. Let's Golf - cartoonish but very playable golf sim.
2. Koi Pond HD - very customizable fish pond simulator.
3. Wesnoth - Turn-based fantasy strategy game.

LogmeIn is pretty nice to have-we've used it at work for a while. Never bothered to get it on the iPhone because of the small screen, but it works very nicely on the iPad!
