iPad.
I would really dig:
An initiative tracker and/or condition tracker.
A way to post to boards a little easier w/o having to use code. the [ and ] marks make it pretty time consuming.
If a cross-platform digital tabletop is too much to ask for, could there be a way to use Paizo-created maps via Google Drive/Play some other service that could then be shared across users? I run a couple of online PBP games, and the trickiest thing is always an easy to run battle map. One where I could move icons, but folks couldn't necessarily download the background image, thus keeping them accessible for those that pay for them. Me hand drawing maps takes a wicked long time, and I don't want to violate the CUP.
Also, though this is on Goblinworks, an App that tracks things for PFO: character status, stores, properties, etc.

Samsung Galaxy S Phone AKA Epic 4g
I have a Droid Charge and a color nook rooted to cyanogen 7.1.0-rc1
HTC Droid Incredible, HTC Rezound, and Kindle Fire.
I'd like to see apps run on Android Ice Cream Sandwich. I'm using a Verizon Samsung Galaxy Nexus phone and an Asus Transformer Prime. Apps should be backward compatible to Honeycomb, at least, and allow landscape/portrait screen rotation, among other features that do not come to mind, yet.
Xperia play and Archos Arnova
does this pool means that we might get an app version of the player character folio?
I've got the icrit and ifumble apps for my iphone, and I love them.

Motorola Droid 4 and a netbook running windows xp.
Samsung Nexus Galaxy.. though it would be great for any apps to be available on a standard pc!

I recommend the Tabletop Initiative Tracker for iPad.
My android phone is a Samsung Galaxy.
My tablet is yet to be purchased, but will be Android as well.
Hi, Canuckistani user here. At our game table almost everyone has a BlackBerry as their primary device - aside from one fellow with an iPhone. However, as BlackBerry's likely only a small percentage of your total user base, may I be so bold as to recommend you build an Android tablet app and port it over to the new BlackBerry 10/BlackBerry Tablet 2 system with RIM's tools? https://developer.blackberry.com/android/
Yes, you can do that - just repackage your Android-built App for BlackBerry users as well. Apparently the process is relatively painless! Apparently.
And in case you want statistics at the table... I myself have a Torch 9810 and a PlayBook 32; other members have I do believe two Curves - though I don't recall which editions, and two Bolds, one I know is a 9700, and the other I believe is a 9900. Also another PlayBook and a Windows Tab running 7.
HTC Sensation for the PRD (although it sometimes changes to the website version) I would really like to see this as an app :D
Tablet PC (Windows laptop without a keyboard) Paizo's PDF's are still heavy on the processor, a normal tablet is just to slow. Asside from that, I use it to draw things out.

Android Tablet - Toshiba Thrive
Android Tablet - Kindle Fire
Android Phone - Droid Bionic
Droid bionic and win 7 mini.
Kindle Fire, I just tried the lte files of the books and they work wonderfully
Motorola Droid 4
An official Pathfinder Dice Roller that is free would be cool. I know many exist, but they are not terribly hard to design/program and it would be a simple way to sneak your way on to my phone in the first place.
Droid X (for a few more months)
How about class specific apps. Fighter app that helps you figure the best use of weapons and feats (calculates bonuses to hit/damage)
Or an app that allows you to import and fill out a character sheet, modifying it as circumstances change.
Samsung Galaxy S (hopefully III sometime soon as well as an android tablet or maybe ipad)
Brand new just out of the box Scroll Extreme Tablet PC running Android 4.0 ICS. Apps will follow!
I will second the request for a mobile app or mobile friendly page for reporting PFS. Ideally I could pass my iPad around the table at the beginning of the session and get everyone to enter their info, then just do a quick submit at the end with PA.

If I ever get a tablet it will NOT be an apple product, might even be the new Microsoft tablet coming out next year.
Gotta throw in my vote for the Blackberry Playbook. I use mine constantly at the table. The beauty is that it can run Android apps. so any Android software developed can be turned into a Playbook App with just a few minutes work.
iPhone
iPad
iPod
Android Phone (please specify in thread)
Android Tablet (please specify in thread)
Other (please specify in thread)
Voted for myself and my group, who all, like me, shift between GM and player.
For the specifics on the last three options:
Android Phone = Motorola Droid, Samsung Galaxy Nexus
Android Tablet = 2x Motorola Xoom, 1x Samsung Galaxy Tab
Other = 2x HP TouchPad (WebOS, not hacked Android), Palm Pre (WebOS)
We're a big mix of stuff. HP sold a lot of TouchPads, which seems to have reinvigorated WebOS, but I'm not making any predictions about the viability of that platform at this time.
iOS and Android, though, seem a requirement for any apps.
A Phone - Galaxy Nexus
A Table - Transformer Prime
W Table - Fujutsu T900 (swivel screen tablet)
Google Nexus S and an Asus Transformer.
I have a transformer prime that I use for all my gaming stuff.
Android Phone - samsung galaxy s2
R2D2 (droid 2)
within the year I will have a tablet, though not sure if I will do android or Ipad yet.
Asus Eee slate with Windows 8 , and kindle Fire
I use a Samsung Galaxy S2
Samsung Galaxy S and Asus Transformer tf101 with keyboard. Looking forward to some great apps keep up the great work paizo!

Gameboy color.
I'm guessing iOS and Android will be less represented than they should be, because their users know that they are devices likely to be targeted anyway. I voted iPad, nonetheless.
Samsung Galaxy S
and the Ipad.
We're an all (non-rooted) Nook household here.
The New iPad, and an iPhone 4s.
HTC Rezound
Asus Transformer
