Default What Is Installed On Your Pocket PC?

Wow. Over 1,100 have voted in the poll on how many apps you have installed, and over 41% of you have more than 21 third party applications installed! 8O Contrast that to the Smartphone Thoughts poll where almost 50% fall in that 3-10 app range.

So, now that we know you are insane with application installation we wanted to see just what it is you are installing on your device. Again, the best way to do this would be to just list what is in the "Remove Programs" icon in Start|Settings|System. I know of no way to easily copy/paste and get everything. Don't forget to list the manual applications that have no installer. My list of "they are always on there" applications is at my personal site, but here is a list of what is on my device right this minute, which may change by the time you are reading this. :mrgreen: (Listed in the order they are shown in Remove Programs)

....so is someone going to actually load all of this data into a spreadsheet or database, and crank out some nifty pie charts?.....

My load currently is as follows:

TCPMP
Golf Pride Get a Grip Golf game
Stowaway keyboard and Mouse Driver
Fann Software lgtEditor
AvantGo Client
Adober Reader for PocketPC 2.0
Tillanosoft PocketNotepad
Tillanosoft tGetFile.dll (..do we think this counts towards my total?..)
Resco Explorer 2003
Two Peaks PerfectHome
ppc4all.com dwBubble
Ilium Software Dots
www.not-big-deal.com Patiences
PDAmill Snails
Microsoft Pocket Streets
nakka tdLaunch
Microsoft Activation (ok, so this probably doesn't count, although it is listed)
Microsoft Reader
Astraware DiamondMine
Pelmar Wisbar
Ilium Software ListPro
Ilium Software eWallet

....and the stuff that doesn't show up in Remove Programs....
Textmaker
Planmaker
eReader
BSoduko

Probably a good thing that I went through this exercise - I'm pretty sure that I overlooked loading a few apps after the last rebuild (although this also probably means that I don't really need them......).
