Absolutely
unconfirmed, I've just received an E-Mail from a fellow the::unwired reader that
he recently tried out is recently purchased
TomTom
Navigator 6 maps v6.75 with his new
O2 Xda diamond
which runs the - yet to be announced -
TomTom
Navigator 7.
While TomTom Navigator 7 features minor enhancements like Map corrections, it's
basically an update to the officially available TomTom Navigator 6 only.
However, unlike for TomTom Navigator 6, TomTom isn't offering any purchasable
maps for TomTom Navigator 7 yet but users of a German O2 Xda diamond can
download one city map only - at least free of charge.
And
the next Facebook application for your Windows Mobile smartphone. After I've
wrote about
fringAdd-ons, which supports Facebook in some way and
FriendMobilzer, I just received another E-Mail which let me know that
Snap2Face was released in v0.8. Snap2Face, which works with Windows Mobile
Professional and Standard smartphones lets you set your status while on-the-go
as well as viewing friends' status and detailed information, viewing friends'
friends and send friendship requests but also lets you getting notified of
events like wall post, message, poke or friend request.
TouchFLO
3D, HTC's new Today screen replacement for the
HTC Touch
Diamond (and the upcoming
HTC Touch Pro)
is quite handy and useful for most users. However, everybody has different needs
and therefore a customization is always appreciated. Unfortunately, HTC has left
all customization options except that you can change the background image of the
main screen (only). However, a member of the German Windows Mobile Forum "PPC-Welt
Community" has now released a free utility called "Diamond TF3D Config" which
adds some more customization options to the HTC Touch Diamond by allowing a user
to rearrange the TouchFLO 3D tabs.
Brilliant,
one of my very personal hot topics is
Microsoft's SideShow
technology for
Windows Vista which is a technology for distributing interactive content to
connected small-screen devices, such as Windows Mobile smartphones. The content
is created and managed by small software applications called SideShow gadgets.
And while Microsoft finally released the long awaited
SideShow application for Windows Mobile a while ago, even if yet available
as an early Beta only, one of the most anticipated SideShow gadget wasn't
available so far - a Windows Vista Media Center gadget to remote control the
Media Center from mobile devices like smartphones.
Unveiled
back in February already, Samsung today announced the open market
availability of the
SGH-i200 Windows Mobile 6.1 Standard smartphone.

at 2100 MHz (up to 3.6 Mbps) as well as Bluetooth 2.0+EDR (including A2DP), the
i200 unfortunately lacks WiFi and GPS. On the back the i200 sports a 2.0
megapixel camera with face detection technology and smile-shot functionality;
while on the front it has an additional VGA camera for UMTS video telephony. The
non-touchscreen measures 2.3", supports QVGA resolution and includes a
