I've noticed some apps don't seem to work from the android market. I'm thinking then that certain ones work with certain devices or versions. The commando has 2.2, so why wouldn't all apps work?
In any case I thought this thread is way to quiet and maybe some could chime in which apps work well on their commando's. I found battery pro is nice as it puts the percentage of power left right up on the bar. Very convenient and seems pretty accurate. It also comes with a very handy disable the lock screen feature that I use alot. Opera mini 6 works very well and has a better fluidity of scrolling than the oem browser imo. I find the GPS on google maps works much better for moving along as you move and way better than bing maps. I also like the free app "pocket" for keeping passwords and info secure.
I'm going to give mobile shell a try and I'll report back as to how it is. I've heard it's hard on battery so I'll be checking that.
OK, Lets hear more.....
 
I use quite a few applications on mine. For weather, I use The Weather Channel app. Had Weatherbug, but it force closed all the time, so I got rid of it. Android Assistant is a good one for cleaning up the phone and killing applications. Where's My Droid is a MUST for me as I put my phone down in the house and forget where I put it all the time. Makes it easy to find. For the internet, I use Firfox and linked it to my computers favorites, ect. IP Cam Viewer Lite comes in handy for the cummute to and from work. I have widgets with a few of the slow areas on my ride so if there is traffic, I can plan ahead. If you have a business or a home with security cameras, this program can connect to those as well, but I don't know much about that. I have some other games and banking applications, but those are just personal prefrence and I don't think anyone cares about those.

Anyone else up to share? I'm always on the look out for a useful application. I'd like to find a new camera app because I do not like the one that comes with the Commando.
