Christmas came a little early for me this year because I picked up a new HTC Droid ERIS. Let me tell you its AWESOME!!! The web voice navigation feature (that requires no setup) makes most iPhone users drool!
When I first picked up the HTC I though hey it would be nice to know what APPs would be really cool for techies. Well after digging through the APPS Market for about an hour. I found this link:

It does a really good job breaking out the Free and Paid APPs.

I really like the Wifi and SpeedTest Apps. I am currently testing RemoteSMS for more information watch the video review: [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vosbgsxfJRU[/ame]

Best Android APPs:

Ya know Glory I'm kinda glad I ran into someone who owns the Droid Eris, because I'm really torn on which to get once I can upgrade: the Droid or Droid Eris. A buddy of mine has the Droid and said in retrospect he kinda wished he got the Droid Eris. What's your opinion on it now that you own it and got to play around with it?

Get the Motorola Droid. It has a bigger screen(also MUCH higher resolution). That alone is reason enough to get it over the Eris. Besides that, the processor is much faster and there is more RAM, meaning less lag when scrolling through home screens, web pages, etc, quickly. Can also run more apps at once without lag. Finally, the Motorola Droid is running Android 2.01, which the Droid Eris is stuck on 1.6. The Droid Eris should be getting 2.0 sometime early next year, but at that point the Motorola Droid will already be on 2.1. Finally, it has a physical keyboard. I love the keyboard, but some don't. But even if you don't like it for texting, you can still use it for games(especially emulators). Much easier than using an on-screen d-pad and on-screen buttons.

I am pretty happy with it... The only thing that is a con is the battery life but once you download the power management app. It should minimize that issue. Plus the verizon network coverage is tight. Plus the blue tooth and wifi interface is cake...
