Pre needs a serious media player that can handle ALL popular media types (.wmv, .mov, .ra, etc.) and not just a select few.

For once, I agree with you. I think the most valuable apps would be more name brand ones that signify votes of confidence in the platform.
Though of course Palm also needs to start rolling out those SDK updates fast. I think microphone support is the most pressing (and thankfully, probably easier than GPU and camera access), so I'd think that it shouldn't be that long before microphone support is included at least.
(Off-topic, but is anyone reminded of the Treo 600 here? Remember how the 600's microphone was tied to the phone radio directly, and it was around a year before we got support for the mic in any applications? That's definitely not the issue here, and it seems that Palm's updating speed has improved, so hopefully not too much longer for that.)

wow are you serious?a voice changer app so i can leave voicemails with my mistresses warning them my wife is about to call without my voice being recognizable.
i think a viewing/broadcasting app for stickam would be cool. another thing that would be good would be, as mentioned above, google lattitude. i think it's so neat.
picking some of the 'low hanging fruit' and getting some name brands on board is a good idea. as well as most banks mobile sites work though, i don't really see a need for BOA or Chase to have an app.

Tiger? Is that you?a voice changer app so i can leave voicemails with my mistresses warning them my wife is about to call without my voice being recognizable.
RDP client.
SSH/SCP client (the homebrew terminal app is greatly appreciated so ssh can be done when needed, but something more polished would be nice!)

i agree that there really isnt anything yet in the app catalog that i really have much interest in, even the free apps ... but let me tell you GEOSTRINGS is going to be awesome. it's just about ready for beta and Dan thinks it might be in the app catalog in January.
now THAT is an application I will get and use .. often!

A*men! Every time I ask Iheartradio or see someone else ask them Via twitter or FaceBook they typically ignore the question. They do like to announce that they have a Driod version coming.
I'd mainly like Shazam. I think a big splash would be if they get Flash (for Hulu viewing) and a Netflix streaming app.
Audible!!! Audiobook reader.

With Flash, we should be able to stream radio as well which would kill the need for the IheartRadio type apps.I'd mainly like Shazam. I think a big splash would be if they get Flash (for Hulu viewing) and a Netflix streaming app.

- Slingplayer
- Docs To Go (on it's way)
- Pocket Tunes
While I think some Webapps are pretty cool, I'm content to use mobile web pages rather than dedicate memory space to something that is basically a web page interface. There are exceptions, though. I'd like to see a Directv app and one for my bank, mainly because their mobile sites are extremely basic.

Flash
an app to let me download things like mp3 directly to phone
Video
Google street view

A good eReader replacement.
I tried both pReader and Popelli Reader. The first lack some bookmark, search features and cannot view pictures in the books. But pReader support DRM. Popelli Reader is feature rich, but do not support DRM yet. I want a Palm OS eReader replacement.
An easy to use backup program for all Apps and settings, not just ones from the Apps store. My son played with Pre and entered pin wrong 5 times. It did a complete reset. Luckily Palm Profile worked for me. But a good complete backup is invaluable.

Dropbox & Orb apps would be amazing.
Hmmm...Doodle Jump, Guitar Tool Kit, Scrabble, and the US Constitution App are the ones I use the most on my iPhone. However, these are not apps we NEED (per se) to grab the attention of the masses. They'll settle for anything with Zombies or Vampires in it I think...
