Top 5 most frequently used applications

I have been trying to figure out what are the 5 top applications... like if you only installed 5 and only planned on ever installing 5 what would they be? I had an Axim X5 Advanced that was stolen last month but I will have an x30H in about... 3.5 hours (wife missed the UPS guy so I have to go to the holding station) I'm curious to what you would load... and we are talking no extra stuff besides memory (like GPS etc)

I'm going to start with my guesses.

1.) Microsoft Pocket Streets 2004 - For some quick Maps when you get turned around.
2.) VITO Remote Control - Avoid searching the the DVD remote your daughter hid earlier in the afternoon.
3.) Pocket Weather (Free) - to determine to take your umbrella out of the car in the morning for the trip back to the car after work.
4.) SBP Pocket Plus - To monitor various functions, add shortcuts, make the Close button really close etc...
5.) Unknown... I used the 4 above alot but the other stuff was only occasional use.... I picked 5 apps to see if there was something I was missing out on

Thanks in advance... it should help me determine what I should try out.

(Assuming that you're not counting built-in apps ... email is No. 1; IE of course, Odyssey/WLAN utility ... etc.)

1) MS Reader (books, all the time, much more use than I expected)
2) Xten XCall (VOIP)
3) IMov (IM client on the go)
4. Resco File Explorer (sooo much better than the default)
5) SPB Pocket Plus (interface is more convenient than default)

WisBar
Total Commander (kicks butt!)

Those are the only non-built in apps I'm using. ;)

I could not live without Pocket Informant or WebIs Mail. TextMaker (and maybe PlanMaker) as well...they make your pocket pc act much more like a desktop computer. Then I would list resco file explorer, resco audio recorder, Flash It (helps me study for tests--and very inexpensive), ...

Hmm IMOV looks interesting, as does Resco Explorer, Pocket SNES, and Beta Player.

I am suprised I am the only one who mentioned Universal Remote Software like VITO remote... do you all find it less than useful? How about Skype? VNC?

Anyone know of a good telnet program? I would like to manage ports at work via my wireless card ;-)

There are various threads about skype not quite working on the Axim X30 ...

If you find a telnet program with ssh2, let me know, huh? ;-)
