MyMedia, AirPlayer, OPlayer are really great for media contents.

For productivity, I like pocketcloud that give access to remote computer (vnc/rdp). There is also TypeLink which gives you access to your own wiki system.

And I use ReelDirector for video editing. Works great but iMovies is now available and seems a better option.

I think every iPad user must have GoodReader and AirVideo. See my sig for details about why GoodReader is so awesome.

Add to that my favorite games: Infinity Blade and Settlers HD.

Getting work done with Pages for general word processing, Notes Plus for handwritten notes and Photobucket for putting photos online.

My number 1 favorite is Olive Tree v.5 Bible app and second would be Documents-To-Go.

Have you used YouVersion Bible? It's one of the most popular on many os systems. I have it on this, my Incredible and my desktop. It's free and offers many downloadable translations for free
I had Olive Tree on my Samsung Omnia but I like Tekarta better on my Incredible as far as paid Bibles

'Early Edition' is my favorite RSS reader, a lot of people like 'Pulse' and 'Flipboard' but their only okay in my opinion.

'Goodreader' is hands down the best utility App for reading PDF's and moving files between your iPad, computer and online accounts like dropbox and mobileme.

'Photo Transfer' is a great utility for wirelessly moving photos and videos between the iPad and a computer.

'Handoff' is great for pushing web info from your computer to the ipad. I reviewed it here: http://wp.me/pOGwK-LQ

This thread inspired me to start a list of great Apps that I love to use: http://wp.me/POGwK-VO

Here's an article I wrote that mentions a lot of other things you might find helpful: http://wp.me/pOGwK-Iv

iBooks and GoodReader, if you don't already have them. If you want to create documents (Word, PDF), get Pages. The Kindle app is useful, because Amazon has a wider selection than iBooks. I have several other apps, but the ones I listed are the ones I use the most.

All of them are free or really cheap, with the exception of Pages ($10). I've only recently gotten Pages, but I already see that it will be very useful.
