It is the memory requirements for this application that has forced the company to discontinue any new versions/updates and provide the last one for free without any support.
They stated "at this point in time WM devices can't handle the next level we want to take our software. So instead of producing an application that does not meet our standards we have decided to pull it from the market"
Perhaps more of an excuse for the software developers not being able to work within the constraints of current PDA limits- who knows.

Right you are... eats up about 6mb of memory. But still I enjoy showing it off to my buddies. I'm not sure if this can be installed and run from a storage card. Will do tomorrow.

Hey, if you want your PDA to look like Windows, use Windows

Have you tried to create a webpage from the screen of the PDA??
I would actually make use of your TSC program had I a suitable device- unfortunately still stuck with JAM- no point of term. services via bluetooth!
Wouldn't mind having one of those up and coming mini-tablet style devices that are due to run the full blown version of XP though.

I'd like to have an OQO or something Unfortunately even the Universal's screen becomes too much work on the eyes after a while. Such a dilema: want a big (VGA) screen, want a small phone. Not gonna happen.
I don't think I'd like an OQO day to day, but nice in bed. But yes, VJFullscreenTSC could be used to write webpages from the Uni.
As I understand it, Experience is a flash app isn't it?

Need simple today plugin to add large icons to today screen

I would like to add a couple of large icons to my today screen to start a couple of programs i use in my car (mainly pocket player). Pocket player does have a today plugin, but its to small to hit when i am driving.
I have tried stuff like iLauncher etc, but i dont need all the extra functionality and find them to fiddly on the small screen. They also slow it down for me. I have resco explorer but the icon are to small and cant see a way to make them bigger (as big as the battery/storage icons).
I just want the most basic 'no frills' app that simply puts large icons on the today screen, nothing else.
Can anyone recommend anything?

I like claunch.

I don't think this forum is hardly the place to be advertising where you can get PDA software for free that you should be paying for. A lot of these users are software developers that SELL their software on the internet and some offer it as FREEWARE. There's a difference. I suppose you've also found cracks for Pocket Plus on the Internet, too??

To give newbie2's post context, I should add that stinkie pointed towards a popular p2p network as a means of getting this software. Now we all know how to use p2p, but I'm not going to endorse it as a way to take money from developers who might well be members of this board.
I'm not one to talk when it comes to intellectual property theft, since if t'were not for said half inching, I'd be a mental pauper, but still, let's try to keep the board as clean as we can.
Assassination contracts, prostitution, that's all fine, but no piracy if poss, m'kay?

VNC options for trinity (have searched)

hi all
Recently got an M700 and am loving it. Since discovering this place I've been amazed at what customisations you can do, and with flashing to WM6 using AX3L's fantastic ROM, getting TomTom6 working, and a few choice other apps to allow FTP etc., i've now got a device that does pretty much everything I could ask of it anywhere! (Probably matter of time till I brick it though...).
What I am missing though, is a decent VNC client (although I've used the RDP client semi-successfully).
I've searched for 'VNC' but no joy - surely that can't be the case when there's so much other stuff available? or is the search function not liking the term...?
thanks for a great forum & resource

Did you see the posts re zoomVNC on PocketPC Thoughts? Looks nice!

i have now
thanks - looks excellent
i guess there's others out there i couldn't search for too!

For me the best is PTPocketOffice.
It was recommended by Menneisyys:
http://www.pocketpcmag.com/blogs/index.php?blog=3&p=1572&more=1&c=1&tb=1&pb=1
It consumes a lot less data than the others VNC.
It's fast.
It has fullscreen.
It can be used one handed.
The server side can resample the pictures to make it smaller (less data and better image than if it was done by client side).
The only minor thing I'd like to see improved is their proprietary softkeyboard. why not using the system keyboard? I don't want to use a new keyboard with each of my apps...

that's a great article
i hadn't thought to even try logmein until reading it there, i'd assumed that with their remote screens always being slightly fuzzy and smaller it mightn't be great - wow, was i wrong!
just tried logging onto a client's SBS server and the screen scaling and rotation together make it nearly as useable as a standard desktop! the screen scrolling at the side of the screen is a great interface! there'll be occasions where i need VNC, but for know i think I've got a favoured solution

3d-printed wide-screen car-holder

Not being able to find a car-holder that would hold my Touch Pro in widescreen
with the keyboard extended firmly and still allow for a power-cable,
I designed this car-holder.
It ataches to anything that can carry a camera (1/4") and to the slide-in car.holders
from HAMA (they sell suction cups, air-hole -attachments, glue-ons and screw-ons).
You can attach the supplied and wider third-party cabless, reach the power-button
and it even comes with a hole to keep yout touch-pen.
If anyone wants one of these,
I can print them for 35eur+postage on my 3D-printer.

Any chance I could get the .stl file? I'd like to use it with my schools 3D printer.

You don´t seem to have that printer for a long time yet to not know http://www.thingiverse.com/
It´s the first place to look for the STL-files of things ment to be printed.

Didn't think to look there. I thought you would've posted a link in here, but oh well.
Thanks!

IGES or STEP
Hi, is it possible to get a IGES or STEP File from you. I want to make one at Work, but from aluminum, with a CNC Mill.
My CAD/CAM Software takes STL files, but import of STL is not the best. It works better with IGES or STEP.
At the moment I am working on a Desktop Dokingstation, its not ready but will be in a short period of time. Will post it here.

Like this?
http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2195
It´s the original Alibre Design files.
With milling you´d have to work very deep in the material without your toolhead touching the sides
and you certainly have to run multiple faces. I don´t think that will work well.
I´m using my Touch Pro only for development now that I switched to the Nexus One.

I have to say that it pretty cool stuff. Nice work Marcus. What cool times we live in when you can design and fab your own accessories for your phone. Thanks for sharing.

Show off your DEX desktop... and share hits, tips, usefull apps, sollutions...

Hi there folks!
At bottom you see my desktop from dex, i have fullHD samsung TV to work with dex, i wish to have better screen resolution but you know, money, money, money.... In nearest future i will buy desktop monitor and attach all cables and stuff to it. But later, ofcorse, i will share my setup.
I have few apps as you see, i use samsung internet browser for facebook due to it`s desktop mode that is best for dex, chrome`s facebook experience is not good, and samsung`s version is just like normal pc feel like facebook. So i have shortcut there. And for writing - for now i have open office port but this makes me angry due to spell checking, I`m writing native in Polish but i want to write also in english without mistakes and that open office port is just more problems that benefits. Also i have camera roll gallery app but also - to change because of lacking 360 photos view, any ideas?I had quicpic but i read that newest version is somehow buggy and this pink fonts... nope.
Rest of apps is just normal, and i cant find any other usefull apps to use with dex for now, i`ve try to connect my two hard drives to dex but it`s just not working like i want it to. What is funny - i have tv android box and this peace of cheap dung works normally with both hard drives... I`ve try different ntfs mounter sollutions but everytime - failure.
For now i feel like DEX is not developing anyhow, no updates, no new functions... i hope that this is no project like bada os project, i hope that this would be developed in future.
So, what is your ideas, apps, tricks and tips for DEX? How your DEX screen looks like?
