Google Maps

This is a good list, but IMO it should have included Google Maps for BB. Unlike the built in map app, it automatically senses your location. Also includes satellite, streetview, directions, save favorite locations, search nearby, etc. If you can live without turn-by-turn directions, this subs nicely for the $10 GPS navigator.

Bad link to WeatherBug

The link in the article:
http://blackberry.weatherbug/com/storm/storm/jad
is wrong. The correct link is:
http://blackberry.weatherbug.com/storm/storm/jad

Enter that on your Storm browser. If it doesn't work, try to clear your cookies (in Browser via Options). Or email the link to yourself and click on it via the Storm.

iHeartRadio Free Streaming Radio Application

There is also a streaming radio application for the Storm that just came out too. It's called: iHeartradio. Works extremely well and doesn't drain the battery too much (compared to Slacker).
You can Google it or go to this page: www.iheartradio.com/blackberry
