Beatmaker, Bomberman, Pinball RC, Bubblebash are all gangster (imo)
FSS Hockey is good as is Touch4. I got the free versions.
There's blatantly loads more, I just download free versions and see what they're saying.
Also, reading the reviews on the app store sometimes helps from getting a poop app.
You tried jailbreaking yours Deams?

So you can add your own ringtones, games, apps without having to download them through Apple.
I tried but failed
Didn't break the phone, just had to restart. Just wondered if you'd had a go.

I dunno about racing games on it, my hand eye co-ordination is poor to say the least.
Might have to get me some bongos though

Shazam is pretty sweet, surprised at how often it can identify tracks.

Don't you have to pay some silly amount of money each time you use it though?

Yeah emulators is another thing you can run if you jailbreak. So i've heard, cos as you know I tried and failed like a big fail flavoured bag of fails.

Apple remote, if you have a mac, controls itunes remotely for those times you can't be arsed to get out of bed.
Guitar toolkit is great if you play guitar, it has chords and scales and is a metronome too.
iTalk is a free dictaphone type thing. Easy to use and good for recording musical ideas quickly.
Fring lets you use skype on your iphone.
Bloom by Brian Eno is compellingly beautiful.
Google earth is a welcome addition too.
