Yep. Got a new phone, went with a Motorola Cliq.

What apps do you folks use?

On my Cliq right now. Pandora, YouTube, Flixster. Google Maps/Google Sky Map, Facebook Touch, Aldiko, NewsRob, CNN/AP/USA TODAY and ACV comic reader are my most used apps.

Oh, you must nab Advanced Task Killer. Mandatory.

Nice, snatched up Advanced Task Killer, better than whatever task manager I was using before. Going to look at your other recos later in the day. Didn't know there were other Facebook apps; the "official" one kinda sucks.

Is NewsRob free? How is it as an RSS reader?

I won't mention anything Wilco already mentioned. I cosign most of them though.

Twidroid and Seesmic are my twitter aps

Meebo for AIM, MSN, and facebook messaging

SNesoid and Gameboid for emulators

Robo Defense and Jewels are my favorite games

iMusic to listen to/download random songs, Robotic Guitar as a guitar tuner, Ringdroid to make your own ringtones

The Cliq has Motoblur, which puts Facebook, Twitter, MySpace, etc. in one app that constantly updates. It's pretty awesome.

NewsRob is free, it works pulls your feeds from Google Reader.

Facebook Touch is basically the web-based touch client in its own application. It's all I use. I'll use Twidroid from time to time, only because it updates almost immediately, whereas Motoblur takes a few minutes. I'm impatient.
