UNCONFIRMED: TomTom Navigator 7 seems to work with latest TomTom Navigator 6 Maps [UPDATE]
Posted by Arne Hess - at 19:25 CET under 02 - Pocket PC News

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.

UTILITY: Customize HTC's Touch Diamond TouchFLO 3D with Diamond TF3D Config [UPDATE]
Posted by Arne Hess - at 14:22 CET under 02 - Pocket PC News

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.

BETA: Microsoft releases Beta Windows Media Center SideShow Gadget
Posted by Arne Hess - at 00:01 CET under 01 - General News

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.
