http://www.alternate.de/html/main/product/DetailPopup.html?artno=UG#W63
I want to use my MDA as these Tablet while its connected to the pc maybe theres a application which could move the mouse when i move my stylus on the mda screen..

there is a freeware somewhere for this (possibly a Microsoft powertoy?), can't remember where now but google for it.

I found these...:

Gonna check it out now...

That's the one i was thinking of
V

I just tried it.. it is awesome....
to bad it's not free any more
This program will be much easier to use, if the PDA's screen is large..
using this program on a small screen like the magician's will be useless IMHO

Should be fairly easy to re write. Will try to investigate later!

PPC Tablet
You might want to try this, it's a commercial product, and as such it serves the purpose well.

It has several predifined layout :a drawing tablet, touchpad, numeric pad, presentation controller, windows media controller. You can even create your own layout or modify existing one.

Yep, you should give it a try if you're bored one day or another. The trial works OK... I like the idea of using the XDA as a universal remote for the laptopo via the design mode but as a pure Graphical tablet the thing sucks. And aside from this I have trouble getting decent connections. Direct connections over ActiveSync (USB or Bluetooth) for some reason are the most dodgy. And if they work they are hopelessly sluggigh - i.e. a few pixels movement a second. If you get to work on this, lemme know. I might have the odd idea for a feature.

Skype on Hermes (XDA Trion)

Hi,
I'm trying to get Skype to work on my XDA Trion over a WiFi connection, but when I try and start a connection, even to the test connection, the program quits. Apparently, this is because only "chat" is supported on the Hermes.
So the big question is.... Has anyone got it to work? Is there an older/newer version of Skype that might support voice comms (and maybe even the camera) on a Hermes?
I am currently using version 2.2 of Skype on WM5.
Thanks in advance.

This one's been beaten to death a bit. The latest version of skype doesn't support the tytn, but the older beta does work ok. I think there is a link to the beta in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=311938

Well you started a pointless thread... redeem yourself and post the link to help others out then.

Ok....
/me goes hunting for link again....
This is where I got it from -

Here's a mirror on my server (may go down at odd times) -
http://www.cavey.co.uk/files/pocketpc/Skype 2.2 Beta/
The cab came from the activesync install directory.
Another link I found is...
http://www.towers.fr/SkypeForPocketPC_Beta.exe

Yes and I don't know why cavey.co.uk had to google because I just checked the thread referred to above http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=311938&page=2 and the links on posts 16,26,36 and 37 of that thread all work!

I hit the first ones on the Skype site which didn't work then looked on oldversion.com (which doesn't cover the mobile one) and googled it.
Let's put it down to me being impatient....

.TSK posts

Post your coolest .TSK here whether its for WM5 or WM6 so people can have some spice in there lives!
How to use - To add just drag into My Documents or Windows folders on PPC

You will have to post some screenshots to be convincing.

your right...but i dont have a prgram that takes screenshots...-_-

That's the lamest excuse that I can thought of. You can
(a) say you'll do it later
(b1) get a PPC screen shot program (freeware)
(b2) get a PC screen shot program (freeware)
(c) get a theme maker to load it (freeware)
(d) just save the preview from www.pocketpcthemes.com (e.g. where you got it). Or point a link to it.
(e) just being lazy and describe about it (which car the theme is, body parts of the car, .. or just say it is car theme?)
(f) say something and heck care about it.
Nice choice.

[Q] Paint for wm??

where i can get paint for windows mobile??
thx

Try VSPainter or Pencil Box they are not free though

too bad that they are not free
are there any free programs?

If you're after an exact copy of MSPaint then CEPaint is what you're after, though again it's not free.
ETA: Actually, give this a shot, it's free.

PPC Diamond - Paint/Image Editors

For PPC image editors, you probably can't get much better than these three:
Pocket Picture (Just-as-good freeware):
http://osdmsoftware.googlepages.com/pocketpicture
Pocket Artist 3 (Pay-application):
http://www.conduits.com/products/artist/
XnView (Free cross-platform):
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xnview
http://www.xnview.com/
http://www.xnviewpocket.org/
Having tried almost every image editor on the Diamond, I can conclude that the above options are the very best available, especially considering the requirement for full VGA compatibility, photo editing, multi-format etc.
Best regards,

Which version?
http://www.xnviewpocket.org/download_uk.html
The
"XnView Pocket v1.40 (Pocket PC 2002-2005/Windows Mobile 5-6)"
is for xscale but there is a:
XnView Pocket v1.40 (Pocket PC ARM)
which one is for the Diamond?

I just found out that there is in fact a freeware version of VSpainter which I found here

The one which is included in Dutty's ROM is PDACraft Paint.

Thanks for the info Ather!
Myself, I dont think I'll be trying it. Looks like its pretty much Winterface with different icons. The UI at first looks impressive but gets rather boring very quickly.
My $.02 anyway

lol, it doesent look like winterface, IT IS winterface

without the icons on crack lol

Would somebody mind...
...dumping all the bmp files for this once it's installed on their device please?
Better still...all the files.
