Finally bought my X1, what are must-have Apps/Dls?

[OldDrunkenSailor]

I finally bit the bullet, AT&T told me that 3G is only on the 1900 band anyway, so missing the 850 isn't a deal breaker (plus VGA video is a need).

Anyway, what are the must-have apps? Paid, free, anything?

I know that I need an on-screen keyboard, Google Maps, what else must I rock to stay alive?

I think Opera Mini, SPB Mobile Shell.
For me also DocsToGo if they already support X1,
CorePlayer.
SkyFire browser worth a check...
Flash Lite...

It's already rocking opera, isn't it? And what do you need flash lite for if Opera/SkyFire both support flash?

It has a great OperaMobile 9.5. Which is perfect for 3G, HSDPA or Wifi.
But it's sucks huge data and at slower connections it's a nightmare.
So OperaMini gives you amazing desktop-like experience, but compressing sites, so instead of 1MB you load like 150kB. And in this case is faster... But no flash and some other goodies...
Also Opera Mobile 9.5 on Xperia does not fully support FlashLite - at least this is claimed by GSMArena, but maybe it's different.
SkyFire I don't know, maybe it's marvellous, but from my own experience - there's no mobile browser supporting all the necessary formats...

Microsoft Voice Command is pretty nice.

I don't know about DocsToGo since Office Mobile is included along with Adobe Reader LE. SPB Shell is a free download (as a panel) as well.

I find spb Backup to be essential.
Microsoft Live Search (voice controlled) enables location aware searching.
I have free push email by way of Windows Mobile Live.
Advanced Config for tweaking.
WMWiFiRouter to turn the X1 into a WiFi hub for your laptop or PC so they can access the internet through 3G.

Yeah,
I listed DocsToGo 'cos it's probably the best Office app,
although I don't know how the native Office Mobile deals with really BIG files?
Anyway I already see that Office Mobile has limited margins control compared to Docs.
Does Office Mobile support inserting pictures??

[WhyBe]

Only OneNote supports inserting of pictures and audio.

If you were doing a lot of back and forth editing of Office files, DocsToGo seems to be the WayToGo over Office Mobile.

Exactly my thoughts too.
DocsToGo seems to be a really state-of-the-art software.
On P1 is working like a dream.
But X1 is not listed on their supported devices so I was wondering if I'd download it under HTC Touch Pro it would work or the problems would start to appear???

Does anyone know about this remote desktop software/any other equivalents that are worth a damn?
