Pretty simple walk. The Arche is worth it. The time of a couple of hours is about right.

Windows Mobile Applications I Cannot Live Without

Filed under: Techno Winnie, ppc — cswilly @ 14:52

I use Windows Mobile V6.1. In addition to the standard Office applications that come with Windows Mobile, I use the following applications, which are presenting in order of usefulness:

  • Pocket Player V3
    I use it for for listening to podcast, Internet radio, and audio books. Great playlist management ($$).
  • MobSync V2
    I use it for syncing files between my phone and my laptop. Used every day for moving podcasts to my phone ($$).
  • MyMobileR
    Remote terminal from my laptop to my phone. Useful if you have to type a lot on the phone or need a mouse (free).
  • Pocket Informant V8
    I use it for contacts and agenda. The filtering for contacts and the agenda view are great ($$).
  • TomTom V6
    I use it for GPS any time I am in the car. Also useful when walking in a town ($$$).
  • TOMBO version 2.0 beta 4
    I use it for storing passwords, bank info, and reference notes. The simple text files are encrypted and are shared with the Windows version of Tombo; where I enter most of the info into Tombo (free).
  • GSFinder V1.04
    File manager which is a lot more feature filled (free).
  • MortButtons 2.5
    Finger friendly menu system (free).
  • AE Button Plus V2.6
  • Redefine any button on the phone. I have one button for ALT-TABing through the open applications and one for turning off the screen.

Update 7-Dec-08

The last three applications I have not installed. I have only missed AE Button Plus V2.6, but the phone has been much more stable without it, so have not installed it.
