Just ordered...new to Symbian

I just ordered the 6682 for myself along with a RAZR for my girlfriend. I'm totally new to the Symbian OS and wanted some suggestions for 3rd party software to try once I get the phone. What would you consider "must have" pieces of software?

Also, can you recommend any sites that are dedicated toward Symbian series 60 devices? Perhaps sites with software reviews & compatibility info?

Thanks!

I will give you the viewpoint from someone who uses the 6682 primarily as a phone and a PDA and sparingly uses the Internet.

Must Have:
Autolock, http://fuse.stc.cx/autolock/

Really Nice to Have:
FExplorer ($0), http://www.gosymbian.com
XXLSS ($0, easier to read clock screensave), http://www.gosymbian.com

Other things I have:
OggPlay to play music, SourceForge ($0)
SplashID to keep frequent flyer info ($0 for the phone software)
WorldMate to get weather forecast, flight status, more ($25)
NiceCalc for a much easier to use calculator ($7)

Thanks for the starter. How are the installed apps? Is the email app worth keeping or are there significantly better apps? Does it ship with a bloging app? How about the calendar/datebook functionality?

I'll let the others respond about the built in email app since I don't use it.

As far as the Calendar goes, I've had no issues with it. I rely on it heavily to keep me in line.

However, I am not crazy about the sync capabilities of Nokia's PC Suite, particularly with Contacts, but it's fine if you keep things simple. See my comments at
