The animation with a .... je ne sais quoi!
You are in the train and your agent is calling you about that unknown company looking for animators. You quickly type their name in Google and oh … horror… they only have a Flash website.
No worries Skyfire is fully Flash enabled! You get the number, phone your agent back and arrange an interview! Life is good.
TCPMP wasn’t working very well on my HTC HD1 and I was using Divx Winmo player instead but Netdrg repackaged the free Divx/xvid player especially for the HD2 and that release rocks! One click on the screen and you go full screen in the glorious 480×800 HD2 resolution.

Last Windows Mobile post of the day.
I have considered buying an Iphone in the past but too many missing Windows default features made me buy a Windows Mobile phone instead. Some of those missing features are the full support and synchronisation of Outlook Notes and Calendar but more than anything is the lack of stable and well thought GTD application, fully integrated with Outlook. Pocket Informant is that one.
David Allen wrote a very good book about GTD and I don’t intend to rival with it in few lines. The only thing I will say is that if you are into GTD, Pocket Informant is a must! The software is huge but you shouldn’t have too much trouble operating it. There is also a free demo so give it a try and start filling up that Inbox and Next Action folder!
My next post will be on the free Flash supporting Windows Mobile browser: Skyfire. Stay tuned
Slide2Unlock is my second, well my first favourite Windows Mobile application.
That one is a Windows mobile lock screen on steroids and believe it or not….. IT IS FREE!!!!
On the surface it looks like an obvious Iphone lock screen rip-off but once you open the configuration panel, you realize that the software is an actual Power App that could be charged several dollars!
Not only it allows you to preview your text messages and email without unlocking the phone, it also allows you to display your appointments on the lock screen….. How cool is that?!?! No need to slide, unlock, launch any application, no need of any Jail breaking, all the necessary information is all there, right in front of you! Your phone has now become a true productivity tool.
Ah I forgot to mention something. There are hundreds of parametres you can play with but the best of all is once again the automatic trigger. I have set mine to the best Windows mobile GTD application: Pocket informant. but that one needs an other post.
