Mobipocket reader
One application that has really changed my life is Mobipocket Reader. There are a bunch of eBook readers out there on different platforms, but one main reason I am sticking with a Series 60 phone for now is this app.
You see, I hate travelling and commuting with books. They take up a lot of room in my bag not to mention the extra weight. Secondly, I often read multiple books at one time, which makes the first problem even worse.
I have to admit, i was a little skeptical that i could read a book on a phone but it actually works really well, especially in short bursts like waiting for a train.
The Mobipocket website makes it easy to buy books and load them on the phone, but if you want to read literature available under other licensing models such as Cory Docotorow's Eastern Standard Tribe you can find versions that are readable on Mobipocket as well.
Also available for UIQ and other platfoms.

Agendus for Palm OS
I have been a Palm OS user for quite a since the original Palm 1000, and I'm not a scheduling junkie, but the Palm Desktop and accompanying applications never did much for me.
Agendus takes the same data that is already on your Palm and presents it in a much more integrated and useful way. Now on version 9, this application keeps getting better and better.
