Very cool. Have to wait until a flash animation hits my fancy though. None of the ones at the site (except the lava lamp) suits my fancy. I simply don't have the time to develop my own (yet). Perhaps when WinCustomize starts hosting themes for this device I'll plunk down the $$ for this.

Well, I bought the AT app and the boat and train packs from Handango.
The first problem I had is that there was some problem on the Handango site that prevented the boat pack from downloading, but the other pack and the main app downloaded and installed with no problems.
I think it looks pretty cool, but it slows down the active sync process, and I got error messages when I tried to install another app, and even when I tried to copy a file from desktop to iPAQ. When I disabled AT, I could then do the install and file copy....not very convenient.

Whoodeefrickendo!!!
Just something to eat away battery life on already power-strapped PocketPC's.
Is America really THAT bored that you must have swimming fishies and choo choo trains blasting along on your Today screen??? If I need to view flash (which is rarely), I use FlashBrowser.

the world is pretty much that bored, hence the multi-BILLION dollar phone background and ringtone industry.

I think this program looks pretty cool, but I have the same problem as dma1965, no demo, no sale...I know the animations will look similar to the ones on the PC but I want to see how this affects performance and battery life before purchasing it. Plus I would like to see more theme packs that interest me.
