Add to the WM 5.0 working list: Billiard Master 2 & Pop's Pipe.

Sudoku Master v1.2

There you can find QVGA and VGA version (WirelessTime v2)
Great app. You will save a lot of battery.

DinarSoft MemMaid v2.3 - Clean your Diamond
ESET Nod32 mobile Antivirus - Good prog but it will bug your volume control. you can only use the volume control with touch and not with buttons. (but you can live with that)
Flash Player 7 - Sadly it cannot work with Opera for Diamond since Opera doesn't support flash (yet anyway) thats why I'm waiting for Skyfire (www.skyfire.com) - it will support not only Flash 6 and 7 but also 8. and full support for java too. Thats nice.!

I'm just wondering what you mean by this...
Is it a program or a battery icon replacement.
A screenshot and/or some more information would be very much appreciated.

@ Brunkage - same question from me - Novii Remote without IR?
My list (apart from the obvious):
HiCalc - best calculator ever!
Ephemeris - nice little application for calculating sunrises/sunsets, sun directions etc.
Resco Explorer with Resco Registry - just brilliant
LightSaber - useless but sooo funny...
TF3D config
Pocket Gravity - addictive as hell

TomTom with Western Europe maps and Franz Beckenbauer voice

Hi Guys
Just joined this forum and am the proud owner of a Touch Diamond, but as I'm pretty new to this, I wonder if you guy's would help me out. There are thousands of themes, app etc. but for a new user like me, can someone hook me up with the ten most popular apps etc. for my phone?
Thanks Again

Klaxon is a great Alarm app with htc like skin. Supports multiple alarms with snooze. It's also sensor enabled for both light and motion
I use it every day
Windows Commander pocket version, also free. It's a powerful file browser. This is needed if you intend to mess around with files in the windows dir of your phone.
Diamond Tweak and Diamon TF3D Config, two easy to use tweak apps to change hidden settings like better touch screen sensitivity and other useful tweaks.
Pocket UFO. Game, UFO Enemy unknown for your phone An old classic strategy game.

Thanks man

How do i install .cab files?
sorry, I really do need to be spoon fed!

Just open them on your Diamon instead of your pc

Hi again
Thanks for the stuff above
I'm havin trouble installing stuff....
I downloaded an alarm clock app, unzipped it and copied the folder to my Diamond (file/program files), but when i ope the folder on my phone the set up file is an opera link? but nothin comes up
please help!

...I STILL CAnt do it!

when i unzip the files, the set-up file is .xml not .cab

SPB Mobile Shell and Pocket Mechanic...works fine for me...
cheers

problem solved!
thanks

The .cab files show up as a winRAR archive unless you change it (in winRAR). So you have unzipped the .cab file. It should just be copied to and run from the file explorer on the diamond.

Recommendation for some games to put on the diamond

Looking for some recommendation for a few games

Games
Lots of game threads on here if you look around, but a few of my favorites are...
Warfare Inc. (my personal all time favorite PDA game)
Broken Sword
Insaniquarium
Age of Empires
Gilbert Goodmate

Virtual Pool Mobile. The only game you will ever need!

By far.... Bubble Shooter (lol) its not 3d but its the most addicting and fun game on the diamond since teeter
pc version here so you can try it out(its a flash game so check it out reguardless): http://www.bubbleshooter.net/game1.php
cab is attached and ppc version is complete with some slick physics (its a demo so it'll pop up "register now" every now and then, just click okay and keep playing, it doesn't expire and you can play the complete game as many times as you want)
