You may want to look at flashing to a custom rom. There are a few different choices under the HTC Titan Upgrades forum. Personally I use No2Chem's. Another popular choice is DCD's. An advantage of a custom rom is windows mobile 6.1. It handles memory different and gives threaded text messaging. Custom roms also remove a lot of the bloatware Sprint installs by default. If you find that you prefer stock, it is easy to go back.

I took a picture of my privates... you know, to test the camera.

First thing I did was buy the largest SDCard I could find (8GB at the time) to install most of the software onto instead of the device memory.

The device memory is reserved only for programs that require being on the device and/or are programs useful to maintaining and troubleshooting the device itself. All my networking and utility apps are on the device...
But all the games, Navigation and Applications are installed on the card.

I would have to say S2U2 is a must have program. Make sure to enable Caller ID on it!

I also use Weather Panel which so far is the best weather app I have found.

SPB Phone Suite is also a handy little app. It allowed me to assign the Comm Manager button to something else since SPB PS has it's own comm manager in it.

PDANet is a must have for me only because I live in a rural area and many of my clients only have dialup access available. When I work on thier systems I can get high speed (EVDO RevA) speed on my laptop to download files they need installed. (Note you better have unlimited data if you plan on using this!)

I also highly suggest Resco Tools (Explorer and Registry editor most important) as it works slightly better for navigating the file system than Total Commander and has more capability that the stock File Explorer.

i'd start by installing all the SPB programs (mobile shell, diary, weather, backup, pocket plus). they work the best for me and were free. Then memmaid, todaytime, resco photo viewer & keyboard pro. the new opera 9 beta is the best internet browser by far and is a must. for games i would download all the realdice casino games and google for the codes. lastly find a torrent for the lastest tomtom navigator. you should be set after you customize it a little.

I see you and I shop in a lot of the same places... actually... not! I tend to "try" software for free but always pay for what I like to use. Being a web developer I know what kind of time can go into software development and how I would feel if someone could actually find a way to steal my stuff.

But seriously, everyone here should go to http://www.skyfire.com and signup for the Beta. That browser is damn fast and well done. I used to use Opera until I got Skyfire. Google Maps and/or Live Search are (actually) free and will do good for the GPS.
