This is the list of apps I have and all were/are free:
PDAnet - there is a free version and a one time paid version. We ended up going with the paid so that we can see security pages like the bank and VA. You use your phone as a router when you use it and can then use your phone (as long as you have cell coverage) to go online.
Barcode Scanner - to check prices in stores
Cardex - stores all those store cards just in case you dont have them or they got lost
c:geo - for geocaching
GasBuddy - lets me know the closest gas stations and latest updates to the prices
KakaoTalk - text and pic program that allows people all over the world to talk FREE, cool way for us to keep in contact with the youngest while he is Korea.
Skype Mobile - free to talk all over the world with
MyCar Locator Free - I can set where I parked and then go all over and still find my vehicle at the end of the day
Sanidumps Lite - gives locations and/or prices of closest dumps
The Weather Channel - updated weather info
My DAT Trucker Services - Gives locations of most truck stops, rest areas, walmarts
Love's - lets me know the closest Love's truck stops and gas/diesel prices
TV Antenna Helper Free - helps locating where to point the antenna

PdaNet
It appears the Jelly Bean update to Droid blocks PdaNet on Verizon. Customer service at Verizon said "yes it does." Reason is Verizon has their own Wifi service now at $20 per month. Any workaround?

Yep. Update foxfi and pdanet. Follow instructions and you have to change your lock screen to a pattern. If it doesn't work after you rename your foxfi hotspot, do a hard reset, power button and volume down for 10 seconds or until phone shuts off. It will turn itself back on, and foxfi should work fine.
