Do the robot dance
Sense or non-Sense, Android gets better wth each new version. It's especially useful if you use Google's services, such as Gmail and Google Maps, because Android is Google's own mobile OS, so you get plenty of Android-only perks. Google Maps supports layers, for example, so you can show your Google My Maps or traffic on the map.
Google also fires out new apps into the Android Market regularly -- Listen, for downloading podcast, and Sky Maps, for star gazing, are a couple of our favourites.
HTC has also scoped out some of the best apps for its HTC Likes app, which is a browsable subset of the Market. We've poo-pooed efforts like this in the past -- after all, why bother visiting the HTC app store when you could just hit the Market and see everything in one place? But finding the best apps on the Android Market can sometimes be like finding a needle in a haystack, since it's more open than the iPhone App Store and there's not the same quality control. You can always check out our list of the best android apps but we approve of HTC's choices too, and they're all free.
