Teamviewer, Logmein. both free.

Week calendar - best calendar app for iPhone. Waze - best free gps with traffic routing. Tapa talk - best way to view Technibble. Google voice, if you use the service.

Teamviewer is a life saver for me on my iPhone 3. It's well worth the hundred bucks if you use it as much as I do, even if you can't reboot a PC in safe mode. If it weren't for it I'd have one heck of a time doing a lot of my work, such as virus removals, system cleanings, ect.
I use it a lot because I am an OTR truck driver and don't always have time to pull into a truck stop, break out the laptop, and use Teamviewer or SimpleHelp (I have both) to remotely log into a customer's PC. Instead, I can simply pull into a rest area a get right to work using Teamvier. If I need to reboot into safe mode, I simply ask the customer to do it and walk them through it

Not a work only tool but Flashlight (by Henri Asseily) is a great free flashlight (torch) app - handy when fumbling around at the back of a PC, invariably the time when you find that your own has run out of juice...

Pandora
ESPN
Amazon
Newegg
Ebay
Solitaire by Mobility Wave (identical to classic Windows game)

Aside from the network scan tools (Speedtest, IP Scanners), the LogMeIn have been the most constructive. It's great to have that immediate response is looking over a minor issue from miles away. I have also come to use often the PDF markup tools (PDF Expert or another by Earthlink) -- simple to store small instruction sets on the phone and email on a moments notice with client specific detail (password or IP information on a general PDF that explains adding a mobile device to their network).

Great app... just don't leave it on by mistake. Someone left their's on so long it ran down the battery to the point that it took forever for it to charge. Guy thought that he had broken it and tried to get it replaced.

I would say Cydia.

But the 4S hasn't been 'freed' yet.

Control Panel - to manage your web hosting
Default passwords - default logins for lots of routers
IT Tools - lots of tools for ping, tracert, whois etc
Calengoo - Google calendar
DSL Checker - UK only
PCIBible - for indentifying hardware with Vendor and Device ID data
Lan Scan - for scanning wireless networks
Speedtest - for testing broadband speeds
BSOD - Blue screen of Death codes
