The Must Have Android Apps

[Hadsus]

I tried Home++ yesterday and was very pleased. I think this is the best home alternative I tried so far. The icons at the very bottom are a simple thing but makes things works more efficienty (google search, phone, apps, settings, notifications (which can be enabled at the very top of the phone or disabled)). However.....I'm running into a slowdown bug. When I switched to GDE (second favorite alternative) I got the slowdown again. Perhaps it's an app or two not playing well with the OS? Don't quite know what's going on but decided to go back to the default home where things are speedy. My guess is that these home alternatives still need development work so perhaps I'll just stay clear for awhile as they seem to be updated often. But if you haven't tried Home++ (still in beta) and you're interested in this stuff, you ought to give it a try. No charge so far.

Has anyone found a good way to sync Exchange Tasks and Notes with the droid?

I have a few request, you android DJ's.
-Anybody have a good, free wallet program/password keeper? Got used to the fact that BB gave out Wallet for free to replace the awful Vault.
-Good alarm program?
-Free flippy HTC-esque clock widget? I know Beautiful Widgets takes care of that, but I'm waiting a few days hoping I'll run into one in the market or hear about it in forums.

Thx in advance.

Stuff I got so far (but old news to you guys, perhaps)
-Soundboards. Lots of them. Probably will delete a few since some are lame...but some are great.
-Bubble. Great and simple bubble level. Multi-axis.
-Amazon. Already mentioned, do a barcode or photo based search, plus more.
-Barcode Scanner. Handy for lots of things, including looking up Android apps snappy fast.
-Crossword Solver. Simple program that looks for patterns. I have to cheat towards the weekends when the crosswords get difficult for me.
-DailyStrip. No, I wish it was a stripper. It's a feed of your favorite comics plus the classics like FoxTrot, Calvin and Hobbes, etc.
-Jewels. Generic Bejeweled. Decent.
-Google Skymap. You don't even need a lick of interest in astronomy to find this cool. At least try it.
-Klondike Solitaire. Meh. Still looking for a solitaire game that doesn't blur due to Droid's higher res screen.
-MotoTorch LED. Fully featured, and easy to use. Even has morse code strobes.
-Pandora.
-Swift Twitter App. Decent Twitter app. But I actually don't use twitter that often.
-USA Today. It's free. But it has a payware feel to it.
-Weatherbug. Tiny ads, worth having. I actually like it better than WeatherChannel's app.
XGalaxy 2 Lite. I am big fan of Galaga. This is a good way to kill time for me since it's so Galaga like.
