What Germans Want
July 22, 2006 [General] | By Edward J. R.
German Pocket PC Magazine has nothing in common with American Pocket PC Magazine, and is published in German. The best Windows Mobile hardware and software for year 2006, has been just selected in a popular vote by this German magazine (issue July 2006) but contrary to American Pocket PC Magazine, where handpicked "judges" are selecting the best products, a reader survey and thus popular vote was used by Germans.
So what Germans really want, what they consider to be the best Windows Mobile hardware and software?
