One more question: does anyone use this subj - IPDashboard by Hudson Mobile Technology?
I realise,that it performs things very similar to such as SPB GPRS Monitor. But I like very much this two tiny displays icon, which indicates GPRS taffic activity - such as on my desctop and laptop...
There are several problems in settng of the subject. I' d like to discuss'em with the experienced users...

Which monitor is the best for monitoring GPRS?
/Deathrow
SPb GPRSMonitor is the one I like most.

I prefer the ip dashboard.
you can also monitor real time traffic with it
http://www.hudsonmobile.com/products/ipdash/index.html
ok thx. I'll try both.
I think I may have settled on the final set of programs I need for the XDA2....
On today screen:
SPB GPRS monitor (nice even if You have unlimited GPRS)
Bluetooth Tools 1.1.0.0
Phone Dashboard (IP dashboard was better but caused the system to hang too much)
Pocket Plus
OmegaOne Journalbar with expansion pack
Other programs:
OmegaOne Calc-1 (great calculator)
ThemeKing
Pocket Controller
Resco Explorer & Registry editor
VO Shopping list
Pocket Informant 5.02 ( still not 100% sure) may try ACT or Fusion
So whats everyone's opinion? Am I missing something? or are there even better programs to be had?
Well great pack but i guess it just depend on oyur main exploitation of a PDA phone
some will prefer communication software for emailing browsing or connecting to their office
some other will use it to enhance navigation with GPS or trafic assistance software
some other my be more oriented in office suite....
or why not games, who knows.
But i m sure your right on one point there are a set of software that are significant for a pda phone
i think of gprs monitor, soft like pocket plus and BT tools of course.
my personnal softwares are
pocket plus
gprs monitor
BT tools
pocketirc
pocket informant with the PIToday plugin
ezwap 2.5 (cause i work in mobile site developements)
Tomtom navigator
and that is nearly all what i need
anyway you make me discover a new calculator i didn t know about thanks
That ll be great to have an exhaustiv list of all softaware and brands cause that 's not that easy to buy the right one, so small but so expensive
and sometimes i discover freeware that are much more powerfull thant sofwares i paid for.
Well that was my long point of view
cheers

Does anyone know of any software or of a way to get pocketie to show your rates for downloads? I currently have a 700+ meg avi file im downloading through orb via 3g connection on my phone and I would love to be able to see what speeds I am getting. Any help is appreciated.
Just use dslreports and other broadband speed testers...
So on my little old S620 i can see the speed of the downloads but on these ppc's which are supposed to be more "computer-like, no? crazy
Well that was worthless. I want to see current and actual download speeds so I can determine when a file will finish. I found 2 apps. One called IP Dashboard. This is a great app that monitors both wifi and gprs/3g data transfer speed. Another is gprs monitor which monitors only gprs/3g and not wifi. I like IP Dashboard as its less ugly looking on my today screen and does both gprs/3g and wifi.

Why not try "Handy Get"?
I will look into this thank you. I found a couple others that didn't work in wm6. one called vito download manager and another called winmobile download accelerator. both supposed to have ie integration but neither worked with hypercore lite wm6 rom. anyway ill check into this handy get.
spb gprs monitor is a today plugin that gives your current speed. No idea on the accuracy but the info is there :-D cheers Russ
I'm trying to figure how bandwidth is used by the different software stored on my Touch Pro - while programs like SBP GPRS Monitor can show usage, it doesn't show what programs use how much bandwidth. It's thus impossible to figure out if something in the background is using the link when it's not supposed to.
i also have this request? anybody can give a guidance
spb gprs monitor (now called spb wireless monitor) has been updated and will do what you want. i use it and love it - very useful
I manage to install tje Spb Wireless Monitor, and set up the tariff for my carrier. When I check the stats for the used amount of data everything seems to work flawlessly for a minute. Then suddenly the program hangs and the only way to use the top bar is to soft reset the device.
Is there any substitueprogram to monitor the datausage for the HD??
No one???? (BUMP!)
I would suggest searching Google using the following seach string :
"pocket pc gprs monitor -spb"
That should display 3 or 4 different options.

I use GPRS Traffic Monitor. Works fine on the HD. http://www.smartphone.net/software_detail.asp?id=1353
if you use GPRS monitor from SPB you have to have access to a keyboard to cycle through the drop down menu to select the connection you wise to monitor. which means a bluetooth keyboard, or using MY MOBILER with active sync on your pc.
Nevermind, a new version of Spb Wireless Monitor just arrived, and it seems to work without any flaws.
Great app!!!
Works flawlessly on HD
