As far as what to get, I won't mention ATK because it seems there's a lot of debate over whether it's necessary, even though I use it. If you like streaming internet radio, there's an app in the marketplace called A Online Radio and I love it! It has a full Shoutcast directory and you can add any .pls files you want.

I'm just getting started and I'm new to Android so I can't recommend much else. What's really necessary comes down to personal preference really.

How do you disable google chat?
