Recommended Pocket PC applications
As I had a few experiences with PPCs, I had tested some of PPC applications. Here is the list of PPC applications, which I would surely recommend. Some are freeware applications, for some you have to pay.
I have tried to divide those PPC applications into categories as follows:
::::: GPS :::::
GPS Utilities (pay) download link
Digital compass, speedometer with alarm, real-time map navigation… Get GPS Utilities for your Pocket PC and be ready for travelling, hiking, driving, geocaching and more!
iGo 2006 Plus (pay) download link
The iGO My way GPS navigation software helps you reach your destinations quicker and easier than ever before. Whether you use it in heavy metropolitan traffic or out in the countryside, iGO My way will always show you the right way.
::::: INTERNET :::::

Opera (pay) download link
With Opera on your Pocket PC, you can surf the same Web sites as you do on your personal computer. The Opera mobile Web browser for Windows Mobile is designed with speed and ease-of-use in mind.
::::: AUDIO / VIDEO :::::
TCPMP (free) download link
Very cool audio ú video player with many codecs. It just simply plays anything.
Vito AudioNotes (pay) download link
It is a windows mobile audio recorder. It is the easiest Pocket PC recorder for recording voice notes, lectures, interviews, negotiations or anything else you like to your Pocket PC.
::::: FILE MANAGER :::::
Total Commander (free) download link
One of the BEST file managers I had ever found.
::::: UTILITIES :::::
S2u2 (free) download link
Application, which enables you to easily lock your Pocket PC. By unlocking you just slide your finger ower the bar line on the screen.
mBlueSchedule (pay) download link
Blue Schedule allows you to set a day-by-day schedule to turn your mobile device Bluetooth on and off at predetermined times.
Mortscript (free) download link
MortScript interprets a (quite) simple batch language. If you know .bat files in DOS or shell scripts: it’s something like that. Its focus is to remote control or launch other applications, not to write real applications. I.e., you can’t do complex dialogs or graphics with it.
It’s more an hacker tool without a nifty interface, you have to write your scripts with any text editor.
For beginners, this might be a bit too complicated. However, it’s still far more easy to use than e.g. C++.
PocketToolman (free) download link
SysTray utility for Windows Mobile devices. It enables you to start bluetooth, wifi or anything right from system tray.
TaskMgr (free) download link
The Task manager application is a bunch of several useful tools in just one tool. The name is maybe not appropriated any more because of all the stuff it provides now. But at the beginning it was just made to manage all running processes as the Task Manager does in Windows on a normal pc.
SmartUtilities/MakeCall.exe (free) download link
Easy way to set up short cuts for your favourite people from your phone book right to your today screen.
SMS Schedule (free) download link
