Was also looking to spring for BikeLaw as well I do travel a few different states and being able to pull up stuff without going to web and search would be nice.
Oh and i have played with Trapster as well gives Redlight and speed camera locations on the fly

I also use E-bay and Craigslist Notifyer while out and about on occasion if I see something on a Bike I Like.

All logs are saved a .csv for charting in MS Excel. It uses ODBII, I have made a custom cable that plugs into the data port on the Harley. Pretty neat.
you can also use a bluetooth connection to the OBDII?

Yes, that is how it is done, but you have to connect the ODBII to the data port via a cable to transfer the data to Android.

Yea I have BestWestern (motorcycle and I think HOG friendly) app AAA apps for pulling up hotels.

TripIt also is nice if doing a trip as it organizes all your info in one nice place.

Recently replaced my iPhone4 for the Droid X. Very happy with the phone and apps.
If you have stocks in Garmin, you better sell soon. The Map navigation will put them out of business. Also great for locating food, fuel, lodging. I'm also a big fan of Slacker Radio.

Tunein Radio if you want to hear your local station.
Radar Now for weather. Also AccuWeather.
Pandora
The built in navigation/ google maps
CarMatey to find where I parked

Problem with listening to Droid(pandora/TuneIn Radio) through factory stereo, the built in music player will start randomly. Listening to 2 different songs at the same time sucks.
