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 [...]

Nvidia next up to reface Windows Mobile

… and it could be the best job yet.  You might remember from the demo at Mobile World Congress in February that Nvidia was entering the Mobile Processor space and it was definitely newsworthy, but it wasn’t Windows Mobile newsworthy until now.  Crave is reporting that not only is Nvidia going to put their [...]


Review: Hexxagon Labs From Herocraft, Are You Up To The Six Sides of this Challenge?

Growing up, one of my favorite super heroes was Captain Marvel. I liked him because he took the best of a number of different heroes, and combined them to create his own super powers. When Billy Batson intoned the word “S HAZAM” he was transformed. Of course, SHAZAM was significant because it represented the heroes [...]

Review: Resco Sudoku Touch

Review: Astraware Platypus (Or, How We Saved Outer Mungola During Spring Break)

Dateline: Collosotropolan. “Sir,” the dedicated bureaucrat approached his leader. “Our situation had reached catastrophic proportions.

What are your orders?”
“Hmm,” the leader [...]

Today, we will be looking at another extremely addictive color-matching game (imagine that) from Astraware and Alexey Pajitnov, Hexic.
In Hexic, you are faced with a gameboard [...]
