After having my imate out of commission for awhile I was disappointed to see that the TodayPlus author folded altogether. Sadly, that was the one App that really defined my day to day use of my i-mate.
So the question is, does anyone know of a similar app or combination of apps that provided as much as that one plug-in?
I use WeatherPanel and also PocketWeather, both on the today screen. I also used Dashboard but I found it wasn't as flexible and STILL doesn't seem to support Phone Edition notifications etc. I did try the T+ and I thought it was great, though because of the problems with having to change date etc to get it working I deemed it more hassle than it was worth.
I would LOVE for someone to find a similar program or better yet, develop it. I can program in quite a few languages myself but I could never get emBedded C++ to work on my machine properly. Bah!!

Is there any database you can recommend? It should habe a desktop client.
Alex
I don't know if this will fill all your requirements by it's free and very, very good.

Looks very promising..!! Thank you!! I'll give it a try..!!

Try SprintDB www.kaione.com
I use it and it is brilliant, its like having full blown Microsoft Access on the ocket PC, Macros. modules, forms, queries, the works
But Sprint DB hasn't been developed for a long time.. as I see so far.. Does it work good on a WM5? Also in landscape mode and so on..
Alex
if its for commercial use what about Oracle Lite with Mobile Server.

The latest I heard from Kaione was that they were working on a WM5 version, but I've been using even the existing version with no problems since I got the Universal. It's fine in landscape mode as that was developed for WM2003SE compatibility.
Depending on what you actually want to do, SQLCE is really good. We use it at work, but you'd need to do some programming to use it!
Unfortunately I am not so good in programming databases. Would be nice if I could import some XLS or TXT lists and could design a nice form for the device for viewing..
SprintDB IS being actively developed, just before christmas I became a beta tester for their version 3 of sprintDB.
It works perfectly on WM5 and in landscape. It is a fab product, much easier and better features than all of the others I have tried.

Hi guys, i want to ask if there's anyone have pocket calculus software or any Pocket software for school for windows mobile. My phone is htc 8525 wm6. thank you very muchh.
Check these out!
There are some great applications out there that should fit your calculus solving needs.
Check out Virtual TI Pocket Emulator version 2.4B. I use it for Calculus and physics all the time and it's almost rock solid. Sometimes when punching in numbers, it hangs but otherwise it emulates my TI-89 extremely well. The only things that might be a bit difficult to find are the ROMs, but you can dump one from your own calculator if you have the data cable.
1-Calc lite is decent as well, but is lacking in some of the advanced features that you might like such as graphing and derivatives.
Let us know here how well those work for you
The BEST solution for calculas, graphing or anything similar is Spacetime... although it isnt free... but google it n check it out.
thank you very much guys
Before purchasing my N1, I saw a video of a Zeemote playing nice with Android promising full support 2 come. I've been hunting around and can't find any progress on this. I have my Zeemote working great with my TP2, thanks 2 a program I bought with a modified version 2 support WM. I searched the same site and only found Bluetooth keyboard support for Android. http://www.mymobilegear.com. Anybody heard anything?
Hi .. I just got a zeemote controller too but I only have 2 windows mobile devices. I've been looking for drivers desperately but havent found them yet. Can you please provide a link to the page where you purchased the wm modified drivers pls? I really want to pair my zeemote to my pocket pcs but havent been able to do so yet (no drivers). Pls help me
It is currently still in beta, but the developer is planning to release it to the market very soon. Both the zeemote and the bgp100 gamepads will work with it. I am a beta tester and can confirm that these bluetooth gamepads do in fact work with this software. The name for the beta software is "Gamepro" but not sure if he is planning to call it something else on the market. The website is correct, mymobilegear.com, look in "GamePad Driver Support Forums"
downloaded the drivers, they work great!
Thx for the info, I found the drivers that you mentioned (gamepro) and they work like a charm with the zeemote!! I will definitely purchase the full version of the drivers, since the beta keeps popping a reminder msg. Gaming on my HD2 just got a little bit more serious.. lol. Touchscreen is great but with the zeemote I can do a bit more hardcore gaming that i wasnt able to before (for ex in Megaman x (snes using morphgear) running and jumping while charging the laser..!)
Hello im new to android i have a advent vega but will love it to have some sort of windows on it if anyone has any ideas or if this is possible please post thanks
Apparently the next version of Windows will be able to run on ARM processors such as the Tegra 2 in the Vega. I doubt it'll end up on the Vega, though someone might port it over.

If we do get windows on vega, would be able to install windows software such as skype,msn etc i probaly guess so but please correct if im wrong
I would be very surprised if windows will ever come to our vegas. Memory i would say is the main issue, xp would be the only one able to run with 512mb of ram, and that has poor touch screen support. I am running windows 7 with 1gb of ram (min system req) on my laptop, and it runs very slow. As far as i am aware even the netbook version needs 1gb. Be happy with android.
I wasn't really talking about windows 7 (although i would like that) but windows CE or windows mobile.
PS . As I said I only want it for the software.

Won't ever happen, windosws mobile is all closed source. Android is much better anyway, just get used to it
Agreed, winmob on the vega prob wont occour.
I too, miss some great apps and games which doubtfully will ever appear on andriod. The android gaming community, seems a little shallower than the wince lot.
I stll keep my htc touch and diamnd 2 specifically because of this.

i think if we can get android 3.0 (or whatever the numbers will be) on our vega's, its more then enough to have enough fun with it, an operating system that does not thing its a smartphone and optimized for tablets. i used many android smartphones before, but using even 2.2 on vega is more fun then any smartphone i think, at least you can read web sites and not harm your eyes
PS : i have a joojoo tablet too, which runs win7 and i think android is better and faster on a tablet like vega ( tegra2 tabets).
Some of the cheap import tablets like the Zenithink ZT-180 have roms for WinCE - but from what I have read nobody really uses them since even WinCE is pretty poor as a tablet OS (well, that and the ZT-180 is pretty rubbish!).
as a student you can get the windows embedded 7 development kit for free, that should be able to run on the advent vega but my knowledge isnt yet sufficient to build and deploy a rom in order t test it
I honestly don't understand this kind of question:
You have Windows a system built for PCs and to be operated specific using keyboard and mouse.
And then you have Android a system built for mobile devices to be operated specific with a touch screen.
I guess the question is not IF it's possible, but WHY in a hell would anyone even bother porting it?
Do you miss msn and skype? I got news for you, just download Skype and eBuddy from the market. Solved!

What about office tools? i have yet to find a decent word processor that retains all (or most) of word's features.
sadly, while gdocs looks lovely, writing documents is still a pain..
Although I also wish that I could do some serious work on my tablet / smartphone, you simply can not do it (too small screen => primarily wasn't meant for this kind of job, but it's great in mobility and therefore "valuable information on the go").
Tablets & smartphones are used to consume / present information and PCs / workstations are used to generate that information.
I have also tried all kind of Office software (QuickOffice HD, Polaris Office, Docs To Go, GDocs,...), but reality is that generating information on Android is 30-50% slower than on a 20" monitor with keyboard & mouse hooked on a PC.
Yes, you could make a new office software on Android that would need a keyboard, mouse & external monitor, but that would defeat the purpose of mobility.
And sadly there is no such good software on Android with so many funtionalities that are found in Microsoft Office.
IMHO you can do up to 30 minutes of work without problems, for anything above that, please do yourself a favor and use a PC.
This something that may interest you. Only on ipad as of now, but I am sure will be on android soon.

Edit OK can't post a link... search windows thin client via on live.
Yes, I already heard of that tech.
It's something like remote desktop (but a bit better).
http://desktop.onlive.com/overview
Will see how this performs in real life when it's released for Android.

And that time is NOW!
OnLive Desktop is now available on Android:
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.onlive.desktop
For free registration and more info, check my above post!
I would like to hear your thoughts on this software!
EDIT: It appears the download is US only.
Here is a link to APK file.
Hmmmm interesting I am downloading now

Yani, its a good app, have you tried? I will use this all the time when I use my Vega during work. I find the windows apps quite poor on Android (I uses docs to go). This is great for reading and creating basic files. There are a few problems I have found so far.
1. The UI is not really designed for touch screen, I used with my docking station, keyboard and mouse but still was hard to click on the right part due to the alignment being off slightly on the mouse pointer.
2. Docs saved to the virtual desktop can be downloaded from a site called files.onlive.com. However when you try to access this site it says 'only available in USA'. So might be a nightmare to get off what you have created.
What do you think?

Sorry, but I haven't used this myself.
If you read my signature, I'm still on stock Froyo and this app needs at least Gingerbread.
I've read only good things about this.
I use QuickOffice for documents, but I only view documents, and these android office apps aren't even good at that!
But I've tried OnLive (for gaming) on SGS and it's amazing!!!!111one
Now to get some answers for your questions:
1. I think you need to restart your OnLive desktop in order to fully accept your mouse&keyboard input.
2. I went to https://desktop.onlive.com/account/myfiles and uploaded a doc file and then redownloaded it without a problem. I'm from Slovenia - EU and I've used Firefox on a PC with Ubuntu/Linux OS.
hi lats how to install im write my email address and nothing why sombody help mi?thanks
