WeatherPanel gets Diamond animation
I am a big fan of the now nigh on defunct WeatherPanel weather program. It is atill available to buy even though the developers seem to have left the planet. Maybe they have gone back to Mars (the company is called Marsware!) However, there is still a close knit community of fans that keep things [...]
Experience Mobility!
This morning, I received a troubling email from our friend, Jack Cook, the owner of Experience Mobility, Microsoft MVP, and all around good guy. It seems his site was hacked recently, and despite his best efforts, Jack simply could not eradicate all of the problems and spam he had been encountering. Jack says:
Sad but [...]
The Windows Mobile Missionary, Issue IV: The Beauty and the Beast, or, Are Powerful Smartphones Just for Boys?
This edition of the Windows Mobile Missionary demonstrates the wisdom of the old adage: you can’t judge a book by its cover.
Are men more techno-geeky than women when it comes to their Smartphones?
I think so.
But, the reason that I ask this is because in my experience, Windows Mobile Smartphones tend to be carried by [...]
C’est La Vie!
Wow. What’s been going on in the world of tech or more specifically, with regards to our little PDA and smartphone family? First, we heard news of Patrick Jordan’s health condition. Next, we heard about an explosion and fire at ThePlanet which hosts the servers that run TiltSite, MobilitySite, and Aximsite, and [...]
HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY!
Happy Mother’s Day to all of the Moms out there from your friends at My Today Screen.
Coming Soon – Boxwave Active Case Review for ATT Tilt
I couldn’t pass up the fantastic deal we posted a few days ago on the Tilt, so now it is time to get it protected (before it inevitably ends up scratched or deformed). I looked at quite a few candidates, and the one that jumped out at me was the Boxwave Active Case™. [...]
Are You Ready For Gear Diary In Your Mailbox??
Well, not exactly. Gear Diary will still be arriving in the same manner it always has, via the good, old Internet. However, one Gear Diary writer, Mitchell Oke, may be appearing in the better, older method of print journalism, via your mailbox soon. After writing for Gear Diary for I have no idea how [...]
New Poll Up: What type of device do you primarily use
There’s a new poll here at My Today Screen and in case you missed it, I am copying it here for you:
For those of you wondering, the Polls are now located under the Your Say heading which is found in the sidebar. Polls start at midnight every Sunday and end 2 Saturdays later just before [...]
The Evolution of Our Facebook
As most of you know, My Today Screen has set up a presence on many social networking sites. We Twitter. We offer gravatars, avatars, and probably anything else ending in vatar. Most importantly, however, we have a Face on Facebook. Until now, that face has been maintained in the official My Today Screen group, which [...]
LapWorks Releases The Painted Futura
Even though this is a Windows Mobile site, we recognize that our readers are well rounded, and have a viariety of interests. As such, sometimes, we find stories which are not directly related to Windows Mobile, but might be of interest to you generally. One such story is the latest from LapWorks, the Painted Futura [...]
First Review of the Xperia X1
Probably the most hotly anticipated Windows Mobile device is the Xperia X1, which is scheduled for release by Sony Ericsson sometime this fall. It features both unique hardware, and a never-seen-before user interface for Windows Mobile. Dietter Bohn over at WMExperts had the opportunity to play with one recently and gives his thoughts, as well [...]
Happy Birthday, Microsoft
Here’s one that I almost missed. On this day in history (April 4) in 1975, a 19-year old named Bill Gates and his 22-year old friend, Paul Allen joined together to form the Micro-soft partnership. The rest, as they say, is history.

Opening Day 2008
This is the first time I have ever written a mobile post. In other words, both the words and pictures were composed on my Sprint Mogul. The reason I am doing it this way , as you can see, I am nowhere near my laptop right now.
I just wanted to say hello from [...]
The Windows Mobile Museum
This one has been around for a while. In fact, I first came across it as a result of a post on PocketNow last November, but I thought it was worth a mention. Over at PDAb.net, which offers some spectacular resources, they have created a Windows Mobile museum. Actually, a PDAhistory chart.
The chart, which is [...]
Toshiba’s Luxury Cellphone Not Likely Coming To A Store Near You
The latest weird phone from Toshiba
I know this is a bit off topic, but this “dumb phone” from Toshiba was just too “interesting” looking to pass up. Of course, with that hefty price tag of $4,000, I doubt that most of us will get our hands on it (not that many of us will likely [...]
