The first thing you should download should be Advanced App Killer, and put the widget on one of your homescreens. It does what it says: force-quit everything; perfect for when the OS is feeling sluggish, and you'll be surprised by how many applications it closes when you press it!

Also, get Barcode Scanner so that you can scan QR codes from your monitor when you research apps online. (QR codes are the black-and-white grid style UPCs you'll see on many app and contact pages. They can even hold contact information, if you'd choose to do that.)

Sadly, AT&T won't permit the Aria to sideload apps. >.>b At least not officially. HTC released a version of HTC Sync that allows you to sideload .apks through it, and they were asked to take it down but you can still find it through third parties.

... or does Barcode Scanner just give you information about things? Hm, that might be handy ...

Is there a way to configure the App Killer so that you don't lose your browser login cookies? At least, I think that's why I have to keep re-signing in to Dreamwidth.
