widgetpack= options to more 'quick links' (so 2 say) threw homescreen widget (frees up valued space)
tapatalkpro=forum type app (p-slim turned me on it, still learning it but use it for ppcgeeks and xda)
I will add them. I turned ppcgeeks onto tapatalk, so I know all about it.
Not sure about widgetpack, since it comes with sense...does it still work?
Androidmate - since froyo has built in apps2sd, and most people like advanced task killer, it really only is useful fro one of them, no?

you know, i guess i never thought bout htc sense...nor have i played w/ 1 so not sure bout widgetpack and your right bout androidmate...(believe you need to be rooted) so if thats the case then most will run froyo, so if it does have the build in apps2sd then you might as well just install astro file manager.

but i did read sumthing the other week bout how its not "good" on android to use a task manager to "kill all apps" as it is w/ win mobile...i'll try to find the link on that.

so no need to add em to your post, no need to get it mixed in w/ the more sensable apps

EDIT: ok here is the link that i found explaining why its not much a good idea to use task killer, very interesting as we are all used to using 1

android mate is an easy apk back up as well, for those who don't like searching through the file explorer.
