RapidDial for Android
The app works fantastically, and fixes one of my biggest gripes with the standard Android contacts/dialer apps. I can VERY QUICKLY type a part of a name, and with one press after the name, either call the person or compose a text message. Rapidly calling/texting a contact is one of the things that Blackberries do VERY well, and android notsomuch. This corrects that. One small suggestion I'd make, for a future upgrade - add a backspace button to the keyboard. Using the 'back' button is incongruous.
Free version is useful; paid version is worth it. In particular, I use the favorites+recent view and hide the keyboard by default. Lives on my dock!
