How about a new thread for this, hm? :P

Here's my list:

1) BBEditor. A little pop-up and pop-away app with lots of text editing
shortcuts. If you spend a lot of time in Notes (like I do) then this is a
MUST.

2) PIMple. The little Dates extention that could. Fast loading, automatic
viewing of the day's stuff as well as meeting conflict hilighting, lets you
"circle" days on the calendar, awesome.

Both 1) and 2) by Way-Chung Wong of Byte-Size software:

3) Fortune. Having a funny message pop up every time is just fun :)

4) MiniStyle. I just recently discovered this the other day. Way smaller
than the built-in Style dialog.

5) Spell. Spell checking for Notes - what can I say, I'm all about the Notes
enhancements. This was already installed when I bought my first uMP2k, and
it's never left me since.

6) Condensed Gothic Font. Uh-oh. No one else has this but me, and now
everyone's going to want it :) But I have to mention it 'cause it's so good.
'Twas the conversion work of Grant Hutchinson.

I couldn't think of anything else, so my list isn't quite up to 10.

We've already done the 10 best games or 10 best must have programs. How about a list of 10 favorite little apps that aren't essential but make the Newton more user friendly?
