You can use it on 240x320 but it doesn't work properly.

Doesn't appear to have recently used applications on it, which I feel is a pretty important thing to have on the home screen. _________________ WiFiFoFum Pocket PC Wardriving

Developer reads this thread.
I have no plans to provide the version for portrait or square screens.
This kind of interface (of simulation) really needs landscape screens.
Especially on so small screen.
I think that the original Windows Vista will not work on small portrait screens too.
As we try to use Vista also on UMPC devices.
It works - displays correctly - on most of PDA phone devices with 240x320 screens, but only if you switch to the landscape orientation.
Sorry. |

Installed this on my Blackjack and it does NOT work.
It installs ok but then when I run it the screen sort of flickers and nothing happens.

I thought I explained it clearly on this program web page
"designed for landscape screens".
any way, I hope I will do more universal, screen-independent version in the future.
thank you for your comments. |

Gave it a shot, pretty cool idea. Kiind of expensive with a lack of features, I would think the full version would be freeware with some customization thrown in for a fee.
It needs more customization. We need to be able to customize what displays on the screens. There also needs to be an option for program icons/shortcuts on the desktop, this would be a GREAT addition.
Also what options is there to make a call? I see the right contacts softkey is taken up by the menu key, so how do I look up a contact easily? Dont forget this is still a phone first. You should incorporate some kind of photo speed dialer on the desktop, look at VR2photodialer (excellent prog) for an example.
It would be worth the money for me with more customization, desktop program shortcuts, and desktop speeddials. |

I did download the free version and it's running fine on my Blackjack. May be I have net comp 2.0 installed but did not see any issues. Thanks _________________ Inder |

I would really like to get this to work on my Blackjack too. What is Net Comp 2.0? Is that the MS .Net 2.0 Framework? _________________ -Steve
