There are three reasons people choose Rogues.

Skills

Sneak Attack

Use Magic Device.

All three can be terribly useful, but it's Sneak Attack that shows up most often. After all, a few extra d6 can come in handy.

Myself, I play rogue because it fits my character. Medium skill in combat, great flanking, good skills, and a knack for that whole getting things away from others thing Acacea mentioned.

Though honestly, your main reason should ALWAYS be "that it fits the character," not that it gives cool feats. Otherwise I'd take 5 levels in Ranger, 5 Levels in Cleric, and the rest in Fighter.
