This list of Windows Apps can equally be used on a USB drive or iPod; Any writable external storage medium in fact. It’s a pretty good list and I’m going to be reformatting my iPod to FAT32 so I can use these apps when I need to. This list is from Dfindley and when comments start to come in over there it will be worth going back and checking, I’m sure other people have favourite portable apps that are not included below.
