The 5th and final part of this Eten Glofiish M800 review was made possible because of you, the readers. Thank you for your suggestions and tests on how I should carry out the review. They have really been useful and I have tried to carry out as much of them as I possibly could. Those […]

There were a lot of hype about the Skyfire browser when it was first announced at WMC ‘08 last month and many were eager to get onto the limited beta. I was one such person. But I was not in the first round (or first few rounds for that matter) of the beta and so […]

How do you transfer files between your computer and your Pocket PC? There are quite a few ways, depending on the situation right? For one, you could use the Explorer function when you are connected via ActiveSync. Or if you are using a remote program like SOTI’s Pocket Controller, you can use their File Explorer […]

So far in this review, I did the (mandatory) unboxing of the Glofiish M800 in Part I, discussed its physical aspects in Part II and then the default applications that came with it in Part III. Last week, I had promised you that I would cover my personal experience on the Glofiish M800 today […]

Usually, when developers create a new software, their main purpose is to fill one of the many gaps created by Microsoft in the Windows Mobile platform. Not to replace the applications that you use on your desktop. So when one such software comes along and actually does that (not intentionally I guess), even users who […]

So far, I covered the unboxing of the Eten Glofiish M800 where I also shared with you the box contents and device specifications in Part I. Then in Part II, I did a take on the physical aspects of the Glofiish M800. From this week onwards, I’ll be going beyond that: looking at what drives […]

I used to use quite a number of Bluetooth headsets in the past but stopped after a while. Either they were nice and small but had poor noise cancellation features, or they had great noise cancellation but were too bulky for my liking. So when I first heard of the Aliph Jawbone, I thought it […]

Continuing from Part I where the Glofiish M800 was unboxed and it’s specifications shared, is Part II where I discuss the physical aspects of the device. Not to worry, there are still 3 more parts to this series (not counting this one) so you will definitely be getting a very detailed look at it. I […]

The Eten Glofiish M800 was announced by Eten last year and many touted it to be the Kaiser (from HTC) killer. You could see why from the similarity in specs and design. The Kaiser was then released but the M800 was nowhere in sight. It appeared that the device was facing some problems and Eten […]

This is it, the review you have all been waiting for: the Eten Glofiish M800 review. The reason I have decided to make this review a series of posts instead of one long review is just that, the whole review is rather long. So to make it easier on the eyes, I have broken it […]

Google2Go was just released this week and already has caused quite a storm in the Windows Mobile world. I was rather interested with Google2Go because it filled a void that Google had created (in my opinion). You see, while the iPhone has a specially designed suite of Google applications which makes accessing them so easy […]

The one spec that I always skip when buying a Pocket PC is that of the camera. After so many years, I have come to given up it ever being able to take great pictures. Instead, I rely on a digital camera, which does a really great job. I was starting to think the Pocket […]

When I do reviews for Personal Information Managers (PIM) or anything that deals with my personal information such as Contacts, Calendar, Tasks and the likes, I am always faced with a dilemma because the screen shots I take of such applications will show these data to the world (and God knows how many people are […]

When I was still in college, I did quite a bit of travelling, thanks to the fierce competition among the budget airlines offering unbelievably low fares. During those times, having a travelling companion in the form of software was really handy because all the vital information you needed were within reach. Information such as currency […]

We first reviewed VITO’s FunContact in early November of 2007. Back then, the software was just launched and VITO had a really promising product. Unlike many other contact manager that was in the market, VITO decided to focus on user experience instead of features and thus created an application that was focused around that. Gone […]

When I first moved from my Nokia S60 smartphone (the 6600), the one thing I missed the most about the Symbian platform was the lack of Profiles. No longer was I able to easily switch from Normal to Meeting as easily. Sure Windows Mobile had that speaker icon (and still does) where you can […]

We first mentioned GoodWin here about a month ago when we did our last prize giveaway for 2007. All one had to do was to provide feedback about the software in our forum and we would draw a winner randomly over the course of the month. We had some really great entries (and some satisfied […]

Have you ever went out and got caught in the rain because you forgot to check the weather? Or you were planning a surprise garden party for your son’s 5th birthday and it turned out just OK because it was so windy that almost everything was flying around and caused a huge mess? If you’ve […]

When the iPhone was announced last year, a lot of developers started to copy it’s interface, from their kinetic scrolling to the device lock. Now I am not saying that this is a bad thing, because these new applications really made our Windows Mobile experience a lot better. But I was hoping for some of […]

I had to admit, when I first considered reviewing PhatNotes, I was wondering why anyone would need another Notes application? Granted that the Note application in Windows Mobile is rather basic but then again, if you need something more powerful, why not use Word Mobile? That’s what I thought anyways. But after trying the software […]
