Flickr

If you have a Flickr account (everyone has or should) then this app will be just great for you. With the app installed and running, you can locate the device or storage card and tap on the upload command. Not only that you can give photos custom names and choose a privacy setting (because you may not want everyone to know what you got up to on Friday night). Again, the accelerometer is used to flip between landscape and portrait mode. The app is on RIM's Application Center.

TalkLock

While the iPhone manages somehow to deactivate the touchscreen when you are on a call, the Storm doesn't. Which means that you can put someone on hold just by pressing your mush against the display. TalkLock stops this problem (in fact it should be part of the firmware really). When you call is connected, it locks the screen. Running your finger over the screen unlocks it again. You can download it from the  TalkLock website.
