Are you stuck with a Windows Mobile phone whether it be a newly purchased phone or a new contract?  Or maybe you just like the network that you are on but are having some urges to have something a little iPhoneish.  I use Verizon Wireless and have been trying to resist the urge to go buy a iPhone.  For two reasons really, number one I just got a Treo 700wx a while back and cannot justify spending the extra cash for a iPhone.  Also believe it or not Verizon Wireless’s network is really good here with EVDO speeds that are decent.  Oh and of course I can install software without “jailbreaking” something. So I’ve tried some of the themes that make my phone act like a iPhone to keep the iPhone urges at bay only to be disappointed in the end. 

Well fortunetaly this little company called Pointui has created some software called Home that effectively runs over top Windows Mobile and creates a easy to use touch screen interface.  No need to pull out that stylus all the main functions of the phone are articulated with Mr. Thumb. Using their Applet ribbon you can easily access the time, tasks, appointments, calendar and up to date weather forecasts and current temperatures.  There’s just a whole lot to like here so I recommend trying it out if you are Windows Mobile user.  The software is beta, but I was hard pressed to find a bug other than having to manually create it as a startup item.  Come on guys have some faith in your software.

    Not bad. Besides, a little bit of frugality is required nowadays.

    Well, I feel I have to admit that I also bought into the iPhone craze. I love iPhones.

    Very informative indeed. Thank you Cristopher. I think many Iphone lovers would like to know of this software as a substitute to Iphone. I myself have been wanting to buy an Iphone but my budget does not allow it. Anyway, I think you should register at MyPRGenie (http://www.myprgenie.com/technology/) and use this tool to market the idea. I am a regular user of MyPRGenie and use it for all my press content. It is extremely helpful and connects the right buyers to the right customers. The idea will sell big. Try it.

    Well, I don’t about keeping the iPhone urges at bay. I just played with one about a month ago for the first time and I must say it is a nifty gadget. Windows mobile is not as trendy as the iPhone, and I dig trendy.
