Review: Twikini (Twitter App) for Windows Mobile

Using Twitter on a mobile device makes perfectly sense, since there is no easier way of publishing your latest thoughts on the go. But like most mobile versions of internet services (Twitter, Facebook) i’m not really satisfied with the official Twitter mobile site (m.twitter.com). So i started to search for native Windows Mobile apps. Twikini was the first native Twitter app i tried, since i... 

Review: NetFront browser for Windows Mobile

Besides Opera Mobile, Iris and Skyfire there is another big name in the long list of Windows Mobile browsers called NetFront. NetFront has been longer around than other browsers like Iris, and therefore is quite sophisticated. Currently Access (the company behind NetFront) provides a public concept version of NetFront 3.5 for Windows Mobile. Can it match the usability and functionality of Opera Mobile?... 

Review: Opera Mobile 9.7 Beta for Windows Mobile

Opera released the public beta of Opera Mobile 9.7 recently, and i have been using it since day one, so it’s time for a round up. This review will emphasize on the differences between the previous versions and the most recent 9.7 build. For more in-depth information about all general features of Opera Mobile check out my Opera Mobile 9.5 review. The first thing i noticed after browsing to my... 

Review: MyPhone service (beta) for Windows Mobile

Originally i planned to publish my review of the “MyPhone” Beta from Microsoft much earlier. But i encountered a few issues with it, and decided to review some other windows mobile apps first. Namely “Facebook” and “PockeTwit”. But finally it’s “MyPhones” turn now, so let’s see how good the beta is. MyPhone Login Nowadays having backups of... 

Review: Facebook for Windows Mobile

Not too much time ago microsoft released a native facebook app for windows mobile. Interestingly facebook made their own Iphone app, but it seems like they weren’t too keen on releasing one for windows mobile. That’s why microsoft had to take this task. I was very quick to install the app, and i’m using it for about two months now. So let’s see if windows mobile users finally... 

Review: PockeTwit (Twitter app) for Windows Mobile

I have to admit that my first experience with twitter wasn’t the best one. I opened an account and started to tweet about some random things, but quickly came to the conclusion that using twitter alone doesn’t really make any sense for me, since i’m neither a star, nor should it really be interesting to anyone to see what i ate this morning (just an example, of course i didn’t... 

Which Opera Mobile 9 build for Windows Mobile is the best?

After reviewing some browsers recently, i came across the Opera Mobile page a few times coincidently while surfing the net. My review of Opera Mobile 9.5 was based on an older extracted cab-file from a rom, so i thought that there must have some enhancements taken place in the meantime. Hoping that the build Opera is providing on their homepage is the best and most stable one, i decided to give the... 

Review: Iris browser for Windows Mobile

The Iris browser is not as widespread as Opera Mobile, Netfront or Skyfire but it’s still one of the more useful windows mobile browsers out there. Iris is using the webkit engine to render pages, which is the same rendering method that is used for the Iphones Safari browser. Therefore the rendering is very clear, as you can see on the following screenshot, and in my opinion much better than... 

Review: Skyfire browser for Windows Mobile

The windows mobile platform has plenty of browser options available by now. Besides the big names like internet explorer and opera mobile, there are other windows mobile browser out there which deserve to be taken into consideration. I will start with the review of skyfire today, which is one of the better known browsers on the market, and on the following days I’ll add reviews for the iris and... 

Review: Opera Mobile 9.5 for Windows Mobile

Only a few years ago i couldn’t imagine that i could be ever surfing the net comfortably on my mobile device. But then apple launched the IPhone and set a new standard for mobile surfing and user interface with their safari browser. Soon afterwards the first HTC devices like the touch diamond emerged preinstalled with the newest opera mobile versions, but sadly my device (Xda Orbit 2) didn’t...
