So far I have iPint, which I've tired off already. I also have the Facebook app with doesn't work and keeps asking me to re-enter my username and password so I've got bored of that too.
What other apps should I try? Is there a IM client that supports Jabber or MSN?
shazam is amazing, it is voodoo black magic. basically, if a song is playing on the radio or television and you do not know who it is by, just open shazam and it listens to the song for 12 seconds then it can identify it. i was sceptical but it works beautifully.
secondly, the remote control app is also very clever, you can use it to control your itunes music from the iphone. seamless, and without hesitation. truly cool.
and both free.

Hackers working to develop software that unlocks the iPhone for use
on non-approved networks and in order to install unauthorised
applications are warning users not to install iPhone Software 2.0.1.
The iPhone Dev team
"If you own a first generation (2G iPhone), no matter what you do
now, you don’t have to worry, the next PwnageTool will get you where
you want even if it you prematurely updated. 2G is completely pwned
at every conceivable level and you’ll always be OK. But if you own a
3G iPhone and are looking for unlock in the near future, don’t use
Apple’s update yet," the team warns.
"PwnageTool v2.0.1 does not work with version 2.0.1 of the iPhone or
iPod update from Apple," they add. "We will release an update to
PwnageTool when the testing has been completed and all applied
changes have been checked for safety."
As somebody who primarily uses OSS I resent paying for any applications, you could also call me tight I guess. Donating, fine, paying no.
Lockbox - free - stores passwords, it's pretty simple.
I've tried this and am surprised it got good reviews to be honest, I find it pretty pathetic for the reasons you mentioned. I don't really see the use of an IM client that doesn't run in the background either.
Has anyone tried Evernote? I hear it's just been updated.
My App tip - Starmap is pretty awesome for telling what the stars and constellations are called, also other things like metero showers etc.
Look at Simplifymedia, details here . It claims to be able to access your itunes music collection remotely. If it works (and I am in work so will have to wait to try it) then who cares about memory size?
It's currently free for the first 100,000 downloads, $3.99 after that.

Edit: Just noticed that is requires Rhythmbox, hopefully it is possible to get this running on a machine that doesn't have X installed.
- iTeletext (apparently only available through iTunes at the moment). Costs 6.60.- CHF but is well worth the money, if you ask me. Gives you full access to the teletext services of many European TV stations - in Switzerland they offer SF1, TSI 1, TSI 2, Sat 1 CH, Kabel 1 CH, Cern-labs Teletext. In the UK: BBC Ceefax 1, BBC Ceefax 2, MANU Text. Ireland: RTE 1. I tested it and it works as advertised
