I just nabbed an iPod Touch on eBay I've really wanted for a long time (took me a while to find one I could afford at the time I was hunting). It should be here in about a week.

Now I need suggestions for apps, especially for Scriptures and other Church books. I also want to be able to handle my existing Mobipocket e-books, and PDFs, ideally in as few apps as possible. :)

Recommendations?

The Church has an official app for the scriptures (and it includes TONS of other stuff like Conference issues, Preach my Gospel, the RS/Priesthood manual, etc.). Just go to iTunes and type in LDS scriptures and look for it--it's free and it says it's the official app.

Also, Eurchre Lite is AWESOME. I'm addicted.

This, and:

Dictionary.com

Constitution, Declaration, Federalist papers (if you're into politics)

Amazon kindle

AccuWeather

Pandora Radio

MapQuest

AOL Instant Messenger

Skype

IM+ Lite

Flashlight

Also, some of the games are incredibly high quality. I recommend stuff from Gameloft, as well as Bust-A-Move (nostalgia talking) and Bejeweled 2 for when you're bored. For RPG fans, Final fantasy 1 and 2 are available. =D Attack and Defend are also good.

Oh, and just to make sure you know, I'm cheap. I have not paid for, nor plan on paying for, any apps. I look at the free ones to decide. :D

I definitely would prefer free or lower-price (well, my checkbook would, anyway :D).

LDS Scriptures Library is very well put together I don't mind paying $15 for the program but I am unwilling to pay for it twice to have the ipad and iphone version... I just have the iphone version.

My LDS stake is pretty nice too. But it is $5. It has an updated ward list, and you can link to the map function easily to find members homes. I have used it a few times to help me recall a members name while in meetings. Pretty slick.

Mormon Channel is a must have. I use it to listen to prior talks, music while traveling in the car. It is updated periodically and FREE

I also use FStream to listen to the KSL feed. Very useful if you want to follow the BYU Cougars and the game is not available in your area.
