Default Must have Droid apps

Picked up my evo last week...can't say enough good things about this phone. Love connecting to wifi...pages load faster than they do on my old laptop. It is still in its stock state, have been working and busy this week, today is the first real day I've sat down and really looked into the phone. I know a lot of apps are free. Are there any must have apps? Downloading on this thing is quick when connected to wifi. 3g is pretty decent coverage, sprint is my carrier. Oh, and the 4.3" screen is pretty nice.

Telsa flashlight,Pandora internet radio, talk 2 type are some must haves. Most news stations have apps, weatherbug is a good one for radar etc....

It comes with a very bright flashlight app. the camera flash doubles as the light. Stuck it on the glow crazy croaker and it lit up last night, could almost use the bait for a light.

Navionics, shazam, and its a long difficult process but get apktor (its a app for apps) if you know what I mean. Basically thousands of apps at tour disposal. rooting your phone could be dangerous/fatal and would void your warranty.
I have a anonymous email all that the iPhone don't have and its great at playing tricks on people. Send emails in other peoples email.

Do a search for evo forums. Do a lot of reading before doing it. My droid is my first smartphone and I rooted it after I had it a week. I did a lot of reading and I was still nervous. Now it's nothing to change roms.
