I got that one, and use it quite a bit. It was really useful on a recent road trip to my mom's. I'll have to look at PixelPipe and ActionComplete. May even try the TED app. Hey Bryan, thanks for the recommendation on Where. I got that one, and use it quite a bit. It was really useful on a recent road trip to my mom’s.

Thank you. @Bryan, I didn't even know about Where, so thanks for the heads up. I love apps that do a lot of things, not just a couple of things that every other app can do. @Jon, you're right that he did get a Motorola, but a Droid is mostly a Droid, especially when compared to an iPhone. It was his choice of a Droid over an iPhone that cemented it for me. @Diane, I appreciate the vote of confidence. Thank you.

The Droid is on my wish list too. I have been debating between the iphone and Droid, but if you and Chris chose one, well, that is good enough for me! Merry Christmas! Nice, Erik!

I haven't read Trust Agents yet, but it's on my short list of books to read next...and hey 2 phones for $24 is pretty tough to beat. I also got a new Droid recently (mine is the Motorola Droid instead of the ERIS, but all the apps are the same) and it's definitely been awesome. I just wanted to recommend a couple apps in case you haven't come across them yet. Pageonce Personal Assitant Keeps all your financial accounts in a really clean, easy to view app. I keep my credit card, checking account, and investments in here so I can check it on the go. Comes in handy if you're thinking about making a purchase, but you want to make sure you're not going too far over budget Where Great location based app that gives you full weather forecasts (which is what I mainly use it for), but tons of other stuff like gas prices, movie times, and even Tweets in your area. It complements Google Maps really well. Feedr If you read a lot of blogs, I love the interface of Feedr as a feed reader. I keep all the blogs that I want to regularly keep up with loaded in the app, and it updates automatically. This is a paid app ($.99 I think so not too bad) but it's definitely one of my most used. A couple others to think about that I've really liked are ActionComplete (GTD style to-do lists) PixelPipe (comes in handy if you're posting content to multiple social sites) and TED (for enlightening 20 minute presentations that you can listen to during a commute) Hope you enjoy the new phone!
