I love to read lists of favorite lightweight applications.

My own list of programs I commonly use and/or light-weight alternatives is here:
http://www.distasis.com/cpp/osrclist.htm

Some other applications that might work really well with LXDE are:
obtheme - edit OpenBox themes and xbm files, written in Python
http://xyne.archlinux.ca/projects/obtheme/
luser - low resource GUI to edit groups users belong to, written in Python
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=47053
luser tarball available:
http://knoppmyth.net/repo/larch/larch5.3/i686/
usermode - useful utilities to mount files, change passwords
https://fedorahosted.org/usermode/
gscan2pdf - Don't know how lightweight this is, but a very useful all in one scanning tool
http://packages.debian.org/squeeze/gscan2pdf
gtklp - includes a nice print queue
http://gtklp.sourceforge.net/
autocutsel - am using this with urxvt and my other programs to get things between clipboards
http://www.nongnu.org/autocutsel/
dclock
http://opencircuitdesign.com/~tim/programs/
diffh - for graphical file compare (just need a browser)
http://sourceforge.net/projects/diffh/
lcal and pcal - for calendars

grafx2 - lightweight paint program
http://code.google.com/p/grafx2/
fbreader - ebook reader

mupdf - very lightweight pdf viewer. There's a plugin for embedding in Firefox on Windows. Would be nice if one could be made for Linux.

wkhtmltopdf - great for converting html/css to documents (pdf/postscript)
http://code.google.com/p/wkhtmltopdf/
uzbl - webkit based browser with JavaScript support

The gpe tools are really nice, useful and very well integrated. Some are available in the Debian package system for desktop computers (not just handheld devices).
http://gpe.linuxtogo.org/

Could think of several others, but am sure this is more than enough for starters.

Audacious is a great music player although QmmP is lighter and has the most excellent ProjectM visual plugin:

Ran across some other lightweight applications to add to the list.

If you're system has trouble running stellarium or you want a lightweight astronomy program, check out nightsky:

For a very simple, lightweight GTK+ 2 image viewer, there's NeonView:
