Default Apps for new phone?

I'm getting myself a new phone at the end of the month and it's an Android handset.

I haven't a clue about any good apps on the platform so any "must have" suggestions please Games too if you feel like it

Thanks all

TEMPLE RUN!! Tune-In radio, BeyondPod, Onavo (data monitor), Google Currents, Snapseed/Camera+/Vignette (if you're into your camera apps), Twitlogic or Tweetcaster, Draw Something, Scramble, Words With Friends, there are so many I can't manage day to day without!

I can imagine the fun of sitting down in a coffee shop and killing the wifi. There would be serious nerd rage

I can only add Netcounter. Handy for keeping a close eye on your data limits.

I'm on 500Mb data at the moment and I've only ever gone over it once in 2 years. What were you doing to hit 17Gb in a month on your phone?
I've only done 6.8Gb total on my 3GS since I got it.
