dragoncub 12-07-2007 12:07 AM

Hi, I missed the Mobitv offer also. can someone pm me a link for download please. Thank you.

queenruby 12-07-2007 02:06 AM

Hey there! I too missed it and have been looking for this..Please pm mea link for download too.. Please.. Thank you

Pibe38 12-07-2007 03:10 AM

I'm sorry everyone, if you missed the download then you are basically out of luck. The downloads are personalized and sent to the user's e-mail address.

Also, even though the initial price was free, MobiTV is a subscription-based application. So you still need to pay a monthly fee after the trial period ends.

Please do not harass other members via PM asking them to send you an application you missed.

Thank you.

PS. This week's download is Papyrus for Symbian S60.

InvincibleLiving 12-07-2007 12:36 PM

Pibe38 12-07-2007 02:00 PM

Free App Friday page is working again
 
I just did a reload, and it is working. The program is Pocket Informant for Windows Mobile:mrgreen:.

syrguy1969 12-14-2007 12:02 PM

I downloaded it a bit ago....how is Pocket Informant? Does anyone have an idea how it works on a 700WX?

Pocket Informant is better then Agendus (a previous app that was being offered in another thread) Never used it on the 700, but it kicks (_@_) on the ppc6700

syrguy1969 12-14-2007 01:06 PM

I have been doing as much reading on it as I can here at work, I think it looks at least worth installing and trying out for a while, I like to look of the few screenshots I have seen!!

KoukiFC3S 12-14-2007 06:16 PM

That's awesome that Handango is giving us such a great app for free!

I use Pocketbreeze right now but might switch to Pocket Informant.

Well this app does require a lot of stylus usage. I'll stick to Pocketbreeze lol.

Pocket Informant
 
For those not familiar with it, Pocket Informant was one of the premier third-party PIMs for PocketPCs dating to when PocketPCs were standalone devices, not phones. I used to have PI running on my Ipaq and Axim but had pretty much abandoned it a couple years ago, when the journal-sync (the main reason I got it) was non-functioning for a while. Purely by coincidence, I installed the download from the WebIS site this morning (without seeing this special) and re-tested it out. Seems to be pretty much the same as ever - very customizable, still a great app for those who truly manage their lives using the phone alone. The calendar, contacts, and tasks modules offer significant improvements over pOutlook, and the journalling capability adds something you could only dream of with pOutlook. Journal items are essentially time-stamped notes that you can link to contacts, appointments, and tasks - and you can use the separate Journal Sync app ($15) to sync these to the Journal on your PC. Despite these strengths, I ended up uninstalling for a couple reasons:
1) My work is Exchange-centric; since many of PI's best features are not sync-able to other computers over Exchange they don't add much value for me;
2) I use "show contact" alot in Voice Command, and I haven't found a way to make that work with PI.
3) The PI interfaces, while often beautifully composed, are very dense with relatively small icons. This makes use of the stylus almost mandatory - very difficult when you are driving or walking and trying to get some info in front of you.
4) It's kind of a memory hog.
The uninstall didn't go very well, and the phone ended up hanging on the splash screen, resulting in a hard reset.
Despite the downside, I still downloaded the app - its a good one, and I'll look for a way to install it as a secondary PIM (just for journalling) on the phone.
By the way, Handango shows the list price for PI 2007 as $35, which I think is an exaggeration ; it's $25 direct from WebIS. FWIW, tmb
[Edit: Corrected prices]

Why is that the one app I want is the when I miss that Friday....Murphy's law I guess.

syrguy1969 12-15-2007 01:46 PM

I don't know if I did something wrong, when I do the install, all I get is flexmail...is that normal, or am I missing a step somewhere?

CozBoogie 12-21-2007 12:35 PM

Today's free app is Fizz Weather for Windows Smartphones.

late,
Coz

KoukiFC3S 12-21-2007 01:05 PM

Will that app work on WM Pro?

cuse94 12-21-2007 09:33 PM

Welp, for once I remember on a Friday to check out Handango and decide to download Fizz Weather, not paying attention to the fact that it's for smartphones. I decided to install anyways and it appears to work... sort of. Of course no touch screen functionality, and it doesn't appear to show up as a plugin option for the Pocket Plus's Today. Otherwise looks like a pretty cool app, if you're a weather geek, which I am. Just wish they would have offerred the ppc version too.

Here you go my friend:

PS:
Serial should work for v2.4, if not, install v2.31, put SN, then install v2.4...
Program works great on my TyTN, bit difficult to set up at first, but much better IMHO then all the rest...

"HAPPY CHRISTMAS TO ALL !!!!"

TMB_XV6700 12-24-2007 12:36 AM

Dexter,
I might be wrong, but your post looks like warez to me. If it is commercial software, you'll need to remove the link. If I'm wrong, then thanks for contributing...

cuse94 12-24-2007 10:42 AM

Decided to give WeatherPanel a try. Pretty good app and free. Love how you can point it to weather and traffic cams specific to your location. Pretty cool to check the last road conditions before leaving the office.

syrguy1969 12-24-2007 11:23 AM

cuse94....good choice....if you haven't already, do a quick search of 'WeatherPanel' in this forum, you will find more than enough info to keep you busy for quite a while.

WeatherPanel is the best weather app I have used, and it is the only one I have found that I actually place on my Today screen to show off, and not just for utilitarian purposes (which is how most others look...pure info, no 'style')!!!!

cuse94 12-24-2007 12:11 PM

Syrguy,
I've been all over the place, especially to the following:
http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=724
http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=7357
http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=9606
http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=1813

Already edited my radar.txt file with all things NC, Western and Central NY.

And you're right, I made my wife check it out, traffic cams and all. Of course she usually humors me with, yeah sweetie that's nice, when I show her most things, but this was the first time she was like, that is really cool!

BTW, how's things in Syracuse? I moved away in '95 but still watch all the football (unfortunately) and basketball games.

syrguy1969 12-24-2007 12:19 PM

I have to admit....I was wondering about the 'cuse' part of your ID!!!!

It sounds like your pretty well schooled in WeatherPanel already then, I swear by that app, and like you I have a female friend that placiates me with my 'techie' ideas, but even she commented on my Today screen (especially the weather) last time I visited.

As far as how it is here.....went from about 2 feet of snow to traces and a thunderstorm last night....now we have flooded basements everywhere LOL!!!! It never stops!!!!

Have a great Holiday season!!!!

I believe in this case "Warez" would also clearly include any application which would require a user to purchase an individual serial or key and then include such a key which in this case would clearly be licensed for another product and or person. The intention is clearly encouraging circumventing legitimate download and license purchase.

Either way it would be a violation of the application user agreement included with the application.

DexterH 12-27-2007 05:40 AM

yes I know I am not important...

You're getting WAY to technical for me dude, I am not stupid and know what the term "warez" etc. are about and I allready said I am SORRY!!, I have paid for most (yes, not ALL, but MOST) of the software on my PPC as I believe everybody (incl. Softw. developers.) deserves something for makeing an honest living. I was also brought up to "HELP" were I can to make life easier or more enjoyable for others, I know I do not spend very much time on this VERY informative Forum (Very expensive Dial-Up acc.), but I am actually a very nice person, now let us all try to get along like the good friends we are...

Now this part makes me a little angry, as I only know of this "ONE" slap-on-the-fingers for wich I sincerely apologized. I also have not killed anyone (Not yet, anyway).

The "...not to mention..." -line makes me think you are trying to feel "important" by making me look/feel "BAD" here, and thats not the way friends should treat one another...

Anyway, I love you all, have a lovely day...

I certainly apologize, not trying to make you look bad.

EDIT - i read the same post 2x thinking it was 2 different posts, your right, your not a habitual warez poster.

Clarification -

Due to the fact you attempted to justify your action, it appeared you needed further clarification.

If you know the definition as you say, then you should know what you were posting would be considered "Warez" and would result in someone saying something to you.

I believe you are sincere,

EDIT - i cannot make you feel anything you dont already feel.

Thou shalt not kill, Dexter....thou shalt not kill.

I agree with the "lets all get along" part of your post though.
