Yeah, it is that time again.
I haven't seen one of these threads in a while and since most of us have had our phones for several months, I'm curious to see what kind of usage we have here. After all, things change when most of the tinkering and tweaking is done.
Include as many as you wish. I have skipped calling and texting, because it is a phone after all, but feel free to post anything.
Here is mine:
1 - Browsing (stock Opera and SkyFire)
I do this daily and sometimes several times per day.
2 - RSS Feeds (SPB Insight ftw)
I can't imagine how I have lived before my daily news/sports/weather updates .
3 - MP3 Player (mostly Pocket Player and MortPlayer)
Almost every day. Especially when there is travelling/waiting/etc. involved.
4 - E-Book Reader (MS Reader)
At least a few times per week. Sometimes I don't read for a while, but then, I do it all week.
5 - Online Hexxagon!!! (SPB Online)
That game is absolutely addicting and I cannot stop playing it.

I'm not going to use it for entertainment anymore. I need to get a good GPA so I can get grants for my college education. I got a little spoiled during my first year in college.

Can you show me how to play java games and where to get those?
Of course. The ones I mentioned are from GAMELOFT. You can get them right there. Native-WVGA-Examples are Pro Golf 2010, Golf the Open 09, Wimbledon 2009, Roland Garros 09, Sonic Unleashed or SpiderMan Toxic City. Digital Chocolate also offers a few ones, e.g. Beach Games 12-pack.

my list only goes down to 3:

other than those 3, are rarely used. and now i'm thinking of getting a standalone gps because the gps function in the x1 (or any phone for that matter) are SLOW.
standalone gps navigation systems are much faster with better precision and have faster refresh rate. i tried driving with a garmin nuvi and it beats gmxt in my x1.
It's my personal computer. So:

2. Calling, sms, mms
3. Email (with amazing Profi Mail app)

Hi, I have searched everywhere on the net, asked (neck-scratching) people in shops and have not been able to find information about it, though it seems a fair enough feature to ask for:
Is there a smartwatch out there on which you can view and scroll in a music playlist on a SMARTPHONE (not the watch itself) and select tracks on that playlist + control the volume, fast forwards/backwards, etc. there (on the phone)?
Perhaps it is a quetion of installing the right app on the watch and/or phone? I would really appreciate some help on that. The watch wouldn't have to be fancy in anything else, could be basic, though it would be nice if it were not too big. I want to use it to play music on the phone for dance classes. The phone would be connected to a stereo system.
Cheers
