I'm all about the MLB At Bat app.

It's not free, but I love it.

My FiOS app lets me set my DVR remotely.

Buddy Runner is nice when you don't have a GPS watch handy.

Re: Droid?

Totally forgot to reply -- yep, it's here, and although it sucks through its battery way worse than my Centro did, it's pretty cool. I'm all set to give up my iPod Touch, which I no longer "need"... except for Scrabble, which doesn't have an FB-linkable Android app.

Can't fathom why Android does not have a scrabble app.

Re: Droid?

Be aware when searching for Android apps that "Android" does not make the decision to produce these apps or not.

The decision to (and cost for the) design would come from the company or organization that the app is intended to connect the public with.

It would be more accurate to say that Netflix or Facebook Scrabble does not (yet?) make an app for Android.

These companies must think that all of their mobile customers are elitist iPhone pricks.

Re: Droid?

Try Wordfeud. It's close enough to official scrabble...

I'm on Words With Friends, which is fine, but all y'all here are on Scrabble.

A little research on the XDA Developers board and there is in fact a scrabble for android game but it's as whore to find and costs $6:99 and re quires a round about way of installing
