Point UI

Category: .mobileAmit Bahree @ 9:36 pm

Fellow Avanut David send the link to Point UI; it essentially is a small skin application for your Windows Mobile 5/6 and somewhat emulates the iPhone interface. Before you roll your eyes and think "here is another iPhone-knockoff-wanna-be", I'd suggest you take it for a spin. It is just bloody good!

The interface is just simple and you can use fingers (my fat fingers also worked!); to me it seems a less of the iPhone and more of a combination of the HTC Touch and the new upcoming Windows Mobile 6.1 and 7 (screenshots of v6.1 can be found here). Maybe Microsoft should hire these guys in the team.

Yes it is version 1 and has a few things missing but the community is quite active and a lot of good seems to be coming out. And the best part of it all – it is free. Big Smile

    Pedro has build one of the best apps for Windows Phone 7 (WP7) that I have ever come across - TFS on the Road. As the application navigation map shows below it covers most aspects of TFS that you would be interested in – all packaged up in a very nice GUI. :) Best of all, the application is free and you can get it from WP7 Market Place or if you want the code then from CodePlex. There are more screenshots for you to see what this looks like. Before you go away and install the app, you need ...
