Let's see your top 5 must have apps for the bionic.
My pet peeve about these app threads is when people don't at least take the time to describe what the heck the app they are posting is. I can understand not taking the time to post market links, but sheesh. How about a description before you submit an app as "must have".
Trapster - FREE - links with Navigation and tells you where Radar is Red Light Cameras and many other things!

Sportstap - FREE (also has Widget) can set to follow what ever sports team as Favorites and reminds you when game it starting with updates and scores.

Tunein Radio (Was Radiotime) - Cost me a couple bucks - Tunes into most Radio stations available on Internet Streams. The rest are available mostly thru iHeart Radio and Radio.com apps that I also have (both Free).

Timetific - FREE - Control mute, vibrate, brightness, wifi and airplane on/off to your schedule.

Not call log - FREE - You can set which screen you want the phone on when a call ends, choose between Dialer or Home Screen. Prevents pocket Dialing. I have it return to Dialer as opposed to the Recent/Call History screen.

DroidLight - Best flashlight app i have found. Its simple and to the point. Ive tried all the flashlight apps and this is the most simple and reliable. does need an update for the bionic coming from my X. but still simply works.
Zillow - Real estate app that you basically can search overheard via google maps and it has all kind of filters to find the right house. Pictures, sq footage, yr built, it has all the specs you could want right in your hand. Ofcourse im shopping for a house right now so this is a must have.
PowerAmp - Best music player I have found for android. Has so many settings and automatically downloads artwork for songs if you dont have it. Has a crossfade setting! Fully customizable EQ. A must have if you listen to alot of MP3's on your bionic.
Screen Filter - Reduces the brightness of your screen for nighttime viewing. even with the stock brightness all the way down i find it too bright at night.
NBC Weather Warning - Runs in the status bar with the temp. Alerts you if severe weather is headed your way. saved me a few times when i was gonna leave the house on the motorcycle. also alerts you based on your GPS location (if traveling). Has full doppler radar built in that screams with the bionics dual core cpu and 1gb of ram. does NOT waste your battery.
Found my current home on Zillow. It is a must have app when shopping for a home. I put my Realtor(with her feature phone) to shame with this app.
Elixir widget - don't know how I lived without this guy! I like a clean home screen - this puts up to 9 apps/widgets in one row (and other sizes)
Shazam - in the car and something new comes up on sirius - just hit SHAZAM and then I can download it later
