HTC Desire – your first five apps

These top apps, all available from the Android Market, will give your new HTC Desire an instant boost.

Facebook
A true must-have for social networking addicts, the Android Facebook app lacks some of the more advanced features seen on the other smartphone platforms, but as an at-a-glance tool for keeping up to date it is indispensible.

Spotify
The future of mobile music? For a £10 per month subscription, Spotify gives you pretty much the whole world of music streamed directly to your phone whenever an wherever you want it.

RoadSync
Need push email via your work’s Exchange server? Then you’ll need DataViz’s RoadSync application. It works with Exchange Server 2003 and 2007 and integrates perfectly with the rest of your email setup.

Documents To Go
A true must-have to bring the Nexus One up to speed for the workplace. You can get free document viewers for Android, but will need to pay for the full Office editing experience.

Flixster
Two million iPhone users can’t be wrong. The ultimate app for film buffs lets you find out what’s playing at your nearest cinema, or simply enable you to watch trailers and read reviews with utmost convenience.
