s/o smart phones - which apps do YOU love?

I just got the iPhone 4 - finally into the world of smart phones!  I am finally getting the hang of it - I can't believe I've been missing this from my life!

I'd love to know which apps you guys recommend.  For now, DD is not really allowed to use my phone to play, though she uses the iPad a lot (so we have lots of apps on that for her).  I'm more looking for apps that YOU love for YOUR stuff. I'm a list-maker, and an organization freak so any that you can recommend for that would be lovely.  Any pregnancy related ones you like?  I'm not much into games or stuff like that.  Oh, and if they're free, that's even bettah.

TIA

    I'm new to the iPhone too. Some apps I like:

    Cards
    Flashlight
    Words With Friends (game)
    Unblock Me (game)
    Amazon
    Craigslist
    Shopping Lists (that couldn't be the full name, but it's all I can find!) I like the version you pay for better than the free one, b/c you can add multiple lists and enter how much each thing costs, etc
    Facebook
    Pinterest
    MyFitnessPal
    AllRecipes Pro
    Food on the Table (MsRosie recommended this one - it's great)
    Shazam (a MUST)
    Trailers (as in movie trailers)
    NPR news
    CNN

    My favorite is Fooducate.  You can scan barcodes and it gives you health rating of the product and suggests better alternatives.

    Pandora

    Cozi Calendar (if your DH has a phone with app capability, you can sync calendars so you have the same stuff on them both.)

    This American Life, iMapMyRun, Soundhound and MapQuest are my faves so far, but I've only had my iPhone for about 2 weeks so I'm a newbie too.
