Astraware Releases My Little Tank
"My Little Tank is a fun arcade-style blaster offering hours of miniature tank mayhem! Through 60 action-packed levels you must shoot enemy tanks, defend your base, and destroy enemy radar stations and bases. You will encounter a range of hostile terrains including snow, swamp, plains and deserts. As levels progress, tougher enemies will appear that require more than one shot or more effective weapons."
Astraware has just released My Little Tank, a game perfect for killing this upcoming weekend.  It is compatible with all QVGA, VGA and square-screen devices, and is currently on offer for $14.95. A trial version is available.

Over the last four years, I've probably spent at least $800 in Pocket PC software (possibly up to $1000). It just occurred to me that if I was into gaming, considering my purchasing habits, that amount would probably be in the $2500-$3000 range. 8O

The folks over at PocketGamer gave me hope that you can play this game on my devices with 4-way gamepads.
Does the demo install leave a .cab file on your hard drive? AS and I haven't been getting al0ng lately.

Anything you install via AS places a .CAB file at some point on your PC.
If I cannot find a .CAB installer, I just install using the PC Installer, let Activesync start up and ask me if I want to install to the default path. Instead of answering the prompt, I use Windows Explorer to browse to C:\Program Files\Microsoft ActiveSync and locate the subfolder that holds the .CAB installer that will be synched to the PDA.
I copy the .CAB to another folder, and then on the Activesync screen, I choose CANCEL, and then remove/uninstall the app from Activesync. I then keep a copy of the .CAB on my 4GB CF (in case I ever need to re-install while on the road), and another copy in an archive folder on my PC. No more relying on Activesync and a cradle to (re)install apps! This has worked successfully 100% of the time for me. This works regardless of whether AS is connecting to your PDA properly or not.

Actually, there a few apps that don't install via cab files. TextMaker, PlanMaker and eReader are among them.
