Tis a fair point, but a nice note would have been nice

I'm still looking for a decent calendar app, google calendar takes up way too much space on the home screen.

Anyone played Hyperspace, my fave game on the Hero - played quite a few games on there but anyone got any more recommendations the "top" games by rating on there seem to be games like "Suduko" which I can't stand.

Robo Defense is SO addictive once you start playing it, had the free version for a few days and then bought the full version, brilliant!

Places Directory is similar to Around Me on the iPhone, works pretty well and can use a built in compass for directionalilty too. Also hooks upto google map pictures for pictures of the locations etc. Pretty neat.

Astro File manager was updated last night, the new version is great - easily the best file browser available IMO and the built in task manager is pretty good also.

Also, if you have root then 'adFree' is very nice
