Hi 155, welcome to Pocket PC Thoughts.

If I may clarify, are you referring to Pocket PC Phones or Smartphones? If you're referring to Smartphones, a stopover at our sister site, Smartphone Thoughts (http://www.smartphonethoughts.com/), is well worth the effort. However, if you were referring to Pocket PC Phones, let us know and we'll all do our best to give you great software recommendations. :)

There are a few I love, 155. Pocket Plus is a must. I like Pocket Weather and Calendar + is a handy upgrade for the vanilla one. I'm sure there'll be plenty more.

Hi 155, sorry it's taken me a day or two to reply. I'm sure a lot of "other" software has already been mentioned, but here's a specific PPC-PE software that may be of interest:

.mobile Contacts (http://www.handango.com/ampp/store/PlatformProductDetail.jsp?siteId=311&platformId=2&productType=2&productId=130264&sectionId=0&catalog=30&topSectionId=-1) - it works great if you're after a one-handed UI for your phone book.

I think it's funny that you post there. I really miss it there. That's the one thing I'll always miss about the Treo. That and only that.

The one app that always has been on my device's, both Windows Mobile and Palm, is eWallet. I just can't live without it!

Another app that I've always used on Pocket PC's is PocketNAV. Well... it's more a utility I guess.

Now that I've got a Phone Edition, I'm also using PocketCHAT a lot. Who thinks a #PPCT IRC-channel would be a GREAT idea?

Interesting idea. Is community discussion at the forums not enough for 'ya? ;)

Actually I learn more at TC then any other forum on several questions I have posted. They have an "Other Phones" forum that keeps pretty lively. A lot of Treo users have come over to the PPC-660x or are seriously looking at doing it.

Here is the thread:
