If you’re new here, you may want to subscribe to our RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!
This is the second in my two-part review of Astraware’s “tribute” to Tetris designer Alexey Pajitnov. In the first part, I looked at the incredibly addictive Mozaki. Today, we will be looking at another extremely addictive color-matching [...]
Guitar Hero III (Mobile Edition). Need I say More?
Yes, you read that right. It looks like Guitar Hero III is going to be coming to your Windows Mobile device. It looks as though the game will game in two versions, a one time purchase, which includes 15 tracks and 3 free monthly releases; or a subscription version which will allow you to download [...]
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 [...]
Launch Giveaway 6: …And For Our Next Trick…
Wow. I can’t believe we are all the way up to day 6 in these giveaways. Frankly, the toll is starting to wear on me. I feel a little like Chris Berman on the 38th hour of the NFL draft. But, like Boomer, we are going to finish this off right with the last two [...]
Werner Goes To The Opera (Mini That Is)
Anyone who frequents any of the Windows Mobile related websites is sure to have stumbled upon, and probably benefited from Werner Ruotsalainen. Werner is well known for being the author of some of the most comprehensive “how-to’s” and genre bibles any of us have ever seen. Frankly, I don’t know how he does it. I [...]
Launch Giveaway 4: Winners
Well, Day 4 of the enormous launch giveway draws to a close. Day 4 was game night, and each prize pack features a collection of games. We had about thirty people enter this one, which was down slightly from over 100 in the previous contests, but weekends are always slow around here on the Internet. [...]
One of My All-time Favorite "Little" Applications: alarmPal by pocketMax software.
We Windows Mobile users are a fortunate lot. Our devices run on a platform that is supported by many talented software developers. Their work builds upon the foundation of WM, and offers the user an almost limitless range of capabilities and customizations to suit one’s own unique needs and desires. Demonstrating [...]
Launch Giveaway V: Let’s Hear From You
Someone on the site the other day commented that everything looks better in Roman numerals. So, I thought I would give that a try. I mean, what the heck, it worked for Mac OS X, right?
OK, let’s get on with the winning. For the last four days, we have talked about the site and introduced [...]
Review: 8-In-1 Arcade Park
Hello. My name is Doug, and I am a child of the 1980’s. Yes, it’s true. I grew up in the timeless decade of pop sensations such as “Come On Eileen”, the Atari 2600, and the TRS-80. To this day, I still love everything about the ’80s from the A-Team (I [...]
Can Live Search Help Find The Windows Mobile Marketing Department
If you have been a frequent reader of my posts, then you know one of my biggest criticisms of Microsoft with respect to the Windows Mobile Operating System has been their marketing…or lack thereof.
Frankly, I do not remember seeing a Windows Mobile commercial on television since they were originally introduced nearly ten years ago. meanwhile, [...]
Launch Giveaway Part 4: Have You Seen Us
One of the great things about the online community of Windows Mobile device sites is the amount of support we all give to each other. If you have been around for a while, you have probably noticed how frequently many sites link to each other’s reviews and articles. I was particularly reminded of this fact [...]
Launch Giveaway Part 2: Winners
I probably had some intelligent lead-in to today’s winner announcement. Frankly, I am too much in awe. We had 104 entrants in this contest (granted there was some duplication, but that is still pretty impressive) which made selecting winners no easy task.
Before we select the winners, the answer to the bonus question was: ZoomBoard had [...]

Using the newly announced Google Gears for [...]
Squeeze Skweezer Into Your Programs With The Skweezer Public API.
I am pretty certain that everyone here is familiar with Skweezer. If not, Skweezer is a fantastic (and free) application which makes regular sized web sites fit onto a mobile screen…by squeezing them. Really, it is pretty remarkable, and if you have not checked it out yet, then you will want to direct your Pocket [...]
Win Mobile 6.1 Arrives in USA with HTC Touch Dual Debut
HTC Touch Dual finally comes to the USA and with an added bonus: Windows Mobile 6.1! By now, I’m sure many are aware of the big news that Windows Mobile 6.1 was coming. And from the information provided at Microsoft’s Windows Mobile website, it looks very interesting, especially the much needed update for Internet Explorer [...]
Review: Astraware+Tetris=Mozaki
When Alexey Pajitnov created the now classic game, Tetris, back in the mid-1980’s, who knew that it would rise to such prominence. Testris has been the subject of so many cpies, variations, ports, and spinoffs, that it has virtually become its own subgenre. I still have fond memories of playing Tetris with my [...]
Everyone Hold Your Collecting Breath. Windows Mobile 6.1 Is Coming!
A few weeks ago, Sprint and HTC released a ROM upgrade for the Mogul. This was the one we had been waiting for: EVDO Rev-A, GPS, and more. The only downside was no Windows Mobile 6.1. At that point, I pretty much determined that I would not be the proud recipient of the new operating [...]

A Day In My Windows Mobile Professional Phone’s Life. Or, How I Use My Mogul to Get Work Done While Having Fun Doing it.
I’ve been reading and posting on PDA blogs for about six years. In fact, when I started doing this over at Aximsite, people still called our devices PDAs or Pocket PCs. Occasionally you’d be asked about your “Palm Pilot,” which would immediately cause any self-respecting Pocket PC user to sneer: “It’s a [...]
