Great, thanks, guys.

Buffistechnology 3: "Press Some Buttons, See What Happens."
Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!
So I got me that Samsung Intercept android phone via Virgin. So far so good! What are some indispensable android apps?
So far, I've got Dropbox, Lookout (anti-virus -- is it really necessary?), Opera Mini, QuickMark (barcode scanner), Retro Camera (is there a better Hipstamatic-styled app for the 'droid?), and TuneSync (the only one I've paid for, it lets you sync to your iTunes... wirelessly!).
Is Opera Mini free? The Dolphin browser is pretty good.
Courtesy of other Buffistas and random surfing I have and use:
- Dolphin Browser
- 3Banana (notes)
- Advanced Task Killer
- Aldiko (rendered less useful now that I have a Nook, and if I had Android > 1.5, I'd just use the Nook app)
- Apex uninstaller
- Astro (file manager--key)
- Flashlight
- Gmail
- Keeper (password manager)
- Pandora
- OneTouch Timer Free
- StarContact
Opera is free. I will check out those others!
Dammit! Last time I'd checked, Opera Mini wasn't. Off to get it now.
I recommend:
- Dolphin browser
- StarContacts
- Pandora
- Note Everything
- Stopwatch & Timer
- handyCalc
- ScanLife and/or Barcode Scanner
- Key Ring
- DroidLight
- Adobe Reader
- Bump
- Radar Now
- Waze
Dolphin browser
Please tell me it's an annotated database of dolphin species.

If I uninstall and reinstall Firefox, will it remember my bookmarks and settings? Or do I have to do something to back it up?
... Your profile folder is kept in a separate place from the Firefox program so that if something ever goes wrong with Firefox your information will still be there. It also means you can uninstall Firefox without losing your settings and you don't have to reinstall Firefox to clear your information or troubleshoot a problem.
