Pocket PhoneTools 4 Pro by BVRP Software
"Fax, SMS, Internet, Dialler and mobile Phonebook on your PDA. pocket PhoneTools is the successor to WinPhone Pocket. Stay in contact, wherever you are, with the essential communication features on your Pocket PC. Configure your Internet connection in a few simple clicks and monitor your traffic thanks to the Data Session Logs. Protect your data: If your mobile gets stolen, you�ll have a back-up of your contacts on your Pocket PC."
This looks like a killer application for those of you with a Pocket PC paired with a mobile phone. The feature-list on the Handango page is about a mile long, but suffice it to say that this application does a lot!

I use this app.
After a very buggy Winphone Pocket, Pocket Phone Tools 4 is one of the best applications I have ever installed in my PPC

$50 seems quite a lot for such an app when you can get a lot of the features for free e.g. using PI to dial a number for you and then EasySMS (http://www.siedler-net.de/WinCE/easySMS/) for SMS messages etc.
It would be nice to have it all in one package, and I would pay upto $30 for it.

50 dollars is a little steep for a product like this I dont care what all the features it has. If I need contact syncronation that bad I will wait till I am around my desktop to do it. This is the only product so far that is supporting the Nokia 3650 phone that I am aware of.

Compare with competitors
How does it compare with the competition? eg mPhone and PhoneKing and RunningVoice GSM?
I like the functionality of Running Voice but I find it too slow to load and hogs too many CPU resources to leave it running in the background.

I'm most interested in seeing how it compares to RunningVoice GSM as well.

It is lighter on the PocketPC than RVGSM, and looks better than Phoneking.
Price is realy an issue comparing to the $25 or $29 of competitors, but if you add a second product like KSE Truefax to add fax functionality you arrive to the same numbers.

I just downloaded the 7 day trial for use on my ipAQ 2210 with my Nokia 6210 (with bluetooth)
- Installed OK to iPAQ
Allowed me to compose an SMS and it said that it was sent but it didn't actually send
If I tried to retrieve an SMS from my phone the application shut down.
I'm using wasySMS which lets me send but not receive (yet).
