My Essential Mobile Apps

Over at the Solo Technology blog, his post My (Current) Essential Mobile Apps inspired me to do a non-Windows Mobile-y version. My SonyEricsson w580 isn’t quite as fancy as his Windows Mobile device, but I think it gets the job done.

The apps I use right now:

  • GMail Mobile - A fast and sexy (for an email application anyways) substitute for the slower web-based mobile version of Gmail
  • Google Maps Mobile - Everything you love about Google Maps in a mobile form + pseudo-GPS functionality. I wrote about it yesterday.
  • Opera Mini - A mobile web browser that blows the embedded one out of the water.

Those do everything that I need to right now, is there something I am missing?

    I just wish I could get the GMail Mobile app to run on my phone. I get a cert error. Alas.

    Opera Mini is pretty sweet, but since I have to fire up the jvm first, I always forget I have it installed.
