I highly recommend "Backgammon NJ for Android" by Jimmy Hu - well worth the price. It has the best computer opponent I've seen (one that can usually beat me on the hardest setting, all of the computer opponents on the free backgammon games I tried years ago were a joke).

Coffee Golf is a great time waster

Hoplite is the best damn mobile game ever.
