foogledricks Posted January 22, 2004 Report Share Posted January 22, 2004 Just bought an Axim. I am wondering what cool applications are out there that can be downloaded for free. There are lots of apps to sift through, and I am sure I will. But it would be good to get some recommendations. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bickle Posted January 26, 2004 Report Share Posted January 26, 2004 Handy Menu - A nifty little popup menu that acts like a system tray icon. It doesn't add any new functionality, but it brings a lot of commonly used option in one place. Magic Button - Allows programs to show in the taskbar when you switch to a different app. PocketFeed - A pocketPC RSS news aggregator. PIEPlus - It makes PocketIE useable by reformatting pages to fit in a PocketPC window. Also allows multiple windows. Pocket MVP - the video player for pocketpc. Pocket Player (by Conduits Software) - A great MP3 player. Theme Generator v2 - Microsoft's theme maker. Also, the theme switcher is a must-have. nPOP - A POP3 email client. Total Commander - A FREE and much better file explorer. eWallet - an encrypted database to store passwords. Also, Freeware PPC is a great place for free software. -Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bickle Posted January 26, 2004 Report Share Posted January 26, 2004 I should mention that Pocket Player, PIEPlus, and eWallet are not free. Also, Handy Menu costs $3, but that's almost free. =) -Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foogledricks Posted January 27, 2004 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2004 Wow, thanks. That was exactly what I was looking for. Hey, I have a question. My Axim has a scroll lever on the left, that I use to navigate web pages, etc. (you can click it in to select a link). The only thing keeping me from a stylus-free browsing session is the inability to go BACK without the stylus. There has to be a way, but I can't figure it out. Maybe there is someway to map that function to one of my buttons? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bickle Posted January 27, 2004 Report Share Posted January 27, 2004 It looks like the new version of PIE Plus has button mapping, but I have an eariler version, so I can't test it. -Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foogledricks Posted January 28, 2004 Author Report Share Posted January 28, 2004 Good tip. That seems to be exactly what I need. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
