I use it for my GPS, specifically Waze, which is crowd sourced GPS. Kinda nice to be able to flag the random road closure or accident that just happened, etc. But you really need a mount of some kind for that.
Other stuff: I play a lot of games on mine, right now it's Marvel Puzzle Quest (a match 3) and Farmville 2 (yeah, I know, but it's pretty). I have an RSS reader on it for blogs, etc, I use it for reminders and a calendar. Camera that's always with me. Just being able to look up random stuff on the go is nice. Out of Milk is my shopping list app, which can be shared with other devices, so I can add something to the list and Jon can see it or vice versa. There's a gazillion productivity apps, etc. Google chat (hangouts) and other instant messaging. I have a cross stitch fabric calculator. :) Linked In has an app, as does meetup, etsy, and pretty much everyone. Pandora or other streaming music (which can eat up data, so watch that one) or load your MP3s on it. You name it, someone has an app for it.
