As a Blackberry curve user I'm always trying to seek out new ways to use it, utilize it, and justify the cost of an outrageous monthly bill since I already pay for unlimited minutes and data.
Recently I discovered Pandora.com which turns your phone into your favorite radio station - just enter the name of a few bands you like and it will customize a music station for you. You can even hit "dislike" if an artist comes on you don't like or "like" if another comes on that is really good. You can plug it right into your car stereo or bluetooth.
I turned my buddy onto it and he cancelled his XM radio account.
I'm curious what others use. Also- is there a decent GPS app that works on the curve better than the one that comes with it?

Merely to try is to prepare for failure.

I honestly don't know what you people see in those things?
I have worked in the tech industry 20+ yrs and never could understand the fascination people have with those. If it were not for work and the issued cell phone I would NEVER own anything like that. I will admit that there is some cool technology out there but I prefer quietness and if somebody needs to get a hold of me, they can just call the house or leave a message on my company cell, which gets turned off the minute I punch out from work.
One thing that does grind my gears though are the morons who seem inclined to text while driving or messing with some app at a stop light and it has turned green for about 2 secs now, and they are not moving, thus the ensued horn blow and the  from me. Its a good thing machine guns are not standard equipment on vehicles. GAH, people who finger bang their phones.
