Default What's in your pocket? Just wondering...

I would like to start a discussion as to what people carry in their pocket and why. I have gone through a lot of different software on my pocket pc over the last few years, and have seen the popularity of apps come and go. So as an attempt to see if I still have the best stuff, I would like to see what the experts are using... That would be you ;-)

Here's what's in my pocket

[u]Dell Axim X5 Advanced with WM2003[/u]
I like the Dell axim for it's solid construction and the dual media slots. Not to mention it is one good looking brain upgrade!

PIMs
Pocket Informant
I've tried both PI and Agenda Fusion, I like each one for different things. I like the Agenda Today screen the most on AF, but that is not enough to keep me away from PI and the many better features.
Two Peaks FlexWallet
I like FlexWallet for it's versatility and customization.
Landware Pocket Quicken
Pretty simple here. It's the best app wor syncing with Quicken
Soft-Concept PocketTime
PocketTime is a great app for tracking how much time I spend for a client and the projects I am working on for them.
Pen & Inc. Software PenAgenda
I really like the look and feel of PenAgenda and the smooth scrolling.

Utilities
CNetX Flash Format
Probably the best removable media format tool out there.
Sprite Backup Plus
Definatly the best backup tool for the Pocket PC!
Typango 3
I like this tool for when I have a lot of writing to do... at least when I am away from the computer and on the go.
Omega One Journal Bar
Great Today plugin with news and weather
Omega One Battery Pack 2003
Very good Today plugin for system stats, and I like the Program Bar launcher
Resco Explorer 2003
Works a lot more like Explorer and much more versitile than the standard Pocket PC Explorer app
Resco Picture Viewer
I use this all the time to share the family pictures and photo albums from events.
DinarSoft HandyMenu
Nice little menu, but I would like it to be more available than just the Today menu bar.
Pocket Controller Pro
Couldn't live without this one... I use it all the time.
WISBar Advanced
I would have to say that this is what the start bar should have been like.

Games
Rayman Ultimate
Very Addictive, plays just like the game console version
PDAmill Gamebox Solitare
Kinda like Hardwood Solitare on the desktop. Great interface, nice options and many variations of the game.
PDAmill Gamebox Classics
Again, another great adaptation of some classic games. Jewel Master is VERY addictive
Handmark Scrabble
Good to play while relaxing somewhere with the family
Handmark Monopoly
Good game playing against the computer or with someone else.
Game Energy Classic Checkers
I have this one mostly for the kids.
Landware Shanghai
A very good MahJongg game, my wife like this game more than me, but it helps to keep her happy

Misc Apps
Laridian Pocket Bible
I love this app, with it's search functions and the various translations I have it is my most valuable tool.
Revolutionary Software Front Lexionary
This one comes in very handy while I am working or reading....

Well, there you go... I showed you mine, you can show me yours...
