Free but Awesome Apps for DROID

Recently I had the opportunity to evaluate a DROID.  Aside from some very useful and impressive core applications, I found these free jewels in DROID’s application market:

  • 1Cast News - video news which provides highlights of key news events
  • Advanced Task Killer - allows one to manage the multiple tasks that are running on your DROID
  • Android VNC - remote control your PC from your DROID
  • Backgrounds - provides a vast list of desktop backgrounds
  • Barcode Scanner - reads UPC codes
  • Cardio Trainer - tracks your position and time
  • Chess Online Free - good computer opponent
  • Document to go - read-only capability for MS Office documents
  • Robo Defense Free - addicting game
  • Finance - see real-time stock quotes
  • Flexilis Mobile Security - anti-virus for Android
  • Free Dictionary Org - handy dictionary reference
  • FxCamera - create effects on photos
  • Jewels - game
  • PicSay - create balloons and other labels on photos
  • Ultimate Stop watch - analog stop watch
  • USA Today - news
  • WeatherBug - location-based weather information
  • Where - location-based interest finder on google maps
  • Whois - find out info about domains
  • WiFinder - see what WiFi signals are around you
  • WikiMobile - WikiPedia-like access
  • WpTogo - update your Wordpress blog through this app
