Default Cry Havoc and Let Slip the Review Team!

Ok, so that isn't exactly what Shakespeare said, but it's close enough. Over the next week you'll see some new names appearing on the front page. Say hello to the Pocket PC Thoughts Review Team! That's right, we're no longer just a "news and views" site - watch out you other Web sites, we're right on your tail! :lol:

I'm thrilled to have two-dozen inquisitive minds willing to sift through the mounds of Pocket PC software and hardware in order to bring you the best bang for your buck. They'll also be contributing informative columns, but don't worry - the flame-bait posts will still come from the same crew you know and love/loathe. :wink:

Pocket PC Thoughts Review Team, please take a bow! :way to go:

UPDATE: We're not accepting any further members to the review team at this time. From about 250 or so interested people, I recieved 60 or so trial reviews, and from those I picked the best 24. It was a long process, and I'm really happy with the team, so I don't want to add any new members at this time. If a few slots do open up, I'll be sure to announce it on the front page again.

Great News. Reviews have been the only thing that PPCT did not have.

I guess I can delte all of those bookmarks for other PPC Sites from my Favourites List. :lol:

Bring on the Reviews!

Cool! How were the "reviewers" selected? Are they volunteers, or were they chosen by the Admins? :?:

Weeeeeel, I sometimes hit the front page to find that every article is new and I need to go to the archives - after missing 1 day! :crazyeyes:

It is GREAT to have so much news (and reviews now :P), but would it be posible to make the front page hold 2 days of info? I know it may not be due to the server load & bandwidth, but, pretty please?

That's great guys. This site already has more updates in a day than most others in a month.

With more reviews it can only get even better.

We've got something cookin' that will meet your needs nicely - we should be able to implement it sometime next week. You'll love it, I promise!
