Our flagship version - Pocket Informant for Windows Mobile has had a really nice big update - version 8.51. This version focuses on some major Task View improvements, better Touch mode, a full T12 search including European characters, bringing back the Birthday/Anniversary Filter, rewriting the entire Contacts View to use a two-phase data read for major performance improvements (old way is still available) and major improvements to the Journal and Events View. There are many major improvements in this release and what's most important of all is that we focused on making Pocket Informant even easier to use. Our goals this past year have focused on streamlining usability and we've done a lot of that in this release.

Major Improvements in 8.51 from 8.0
  • New Tasks Filter Screen
  • Touch mode now shows larger buttons and screens
  • Email Integration with Contacts Summary
  • Send vCard from Contacts
  • 12 Key Search for Pocket PC - this is like T9 for search
  • Birthday/Anniversary Filter in Agenda Customize View
  • Contacts rewritten so that it now is very fast
  • Improved Events view with groupings and more options
  • Improved Journal view with groupings and better view
  • Improved Touch mode
  • Major improvements to Smartphone all over the place
  • SmartPhone now supports Linking
  • Better one-handed usage
  • Default Number (SmartNum) now editable in the editor
  • A number of Template improvements
