What's in your ewallet?
Since the PDA thread is getting a lot of traffic (even if not everyone has converted to the beauty of the PPC platform) I thought a list of software was in order.
I'm too lazy to link everything right now, they should be easily Googleable though.
MessagEase - Killer input method after a slight learning curve.
SnoopSoft Dashboard
Journal Bar - Today screen weather and news
Battery Bar - Today screen system info
GPS Gate - Share GPS across multiple apps
Routis - GPS Navigation software
WiFiFoFum - Wireless access finder with GPS logging capabilities
Atlantis: Redux - Adventure game
Redshift Legacy - Classic gold box style RPG.
Resco apps - real file explorer (map network drives!), registry editor, etc.
Depth of Field Calculator - photography app.
GnuGo - freeware Go player
vxUtil - network tools
vxIPCONFIG - functionality of the Windows tool of the same name.
AvantGo - download webpages for offline reading
µBook Reader - Great reader for books (non-.lit)
WisBar Advance - task switching, killing, and more
Ok, that's the main ones I can think of for now. I still need to get a good RPN calculator app. I found one at one point, didn't install it and didn't bookmark it, haven't found it since 
There are some good astronomy programs I found too that I haven't installed yet either.

NetHack 3.4.3 For PocketPC
Tetris from Ramon de Klein
Stuntcar Extreme and Enigmo which came with the system from Dell
SE_VGA To marvel at the number of pixels they squeezed into this tiny screen!
So far that''s all. I''m still working out how best to integrate this thing into my work routine and I want the tools to fit my routine rather than making my routine fit the tools. I''m taking notes in freehand mode and that seems to work fine. I may need a way to pull the notes together a little more intuitively, but I''ll work that out as I go along!
Politely rude. Briskly vague. Firmly uninformative.
If you golf, pocketPC intelligolf is very cool. It costs a few dollars, but you can download close to any course in North America on it and it keeps track of your stats and everything. Highly recommended for any pocketpc owning golfers out there.
