I plan to continue updating this post until we have a complete list of everything SAFE to remove. Safe meaning the OS still boots and runs properly with no side-effects other than the app being gone.
I would like to keep going and remove the Genius Button app (remapped to regular Google Search) as well as any other nonsense that I don't need. I'm keeping backups of everything I remove and plan to have a Bloatware.zip file (non-flashable!) on hand for anyone who needs to unroot, restore, receive OTA updates, or what-have-you.

So far I've removed:
AmazonMP3
AppPack
Asphalt5
com.htc.StockWidget
com.htc.TwitterWidget
Faves
FavesWidget
Flickr
HtcTwitter
Monopoly_Classic
Rockband
Stock
T-mobileTV
TmoVVM
VVM
Yahoo_im
Yahoo_imvideo
Yahoo_mail
And the corresponding odex files when they exist.
What have YOU removed?
EDIT - In case anyone is wondering you must be rooted to do this. I simply used Root Explorer from the market and went into system/app and used multi-select. Then I simply pressed MOVE and dropped everything into a folder on my sdcard for safe keeping.
MAKE A NANDROID BACKUP BEFORE DOING THIS!! That way you can restore if you **** something up.
