I would like to take a moment of your time, should you be a Windows Mobile user, as you should immediately check out Pointui:
“Take back control of your device with Pointui Home. No need to fumble for a stylus any more as Home is designed with generously sized controls.”
It is pitched as “the definitive user interface for mobile devices” — Microsoft, take note. This is what windows mobile should be capable of, right out of the box.
It’s still early days, however navigation already follows a pattern and you end up where you expected to go. And the UI is quite simply, outstanding.
This (freeware, no less) interface is no instant iPhone killer, for certain, but after little more than 5 minutes of use I simply cannot imagine ever returning to the cludgy stylus-and-menu structure that has haunted Windows Mobile for years.
If you want to free your windows mobile device, this is the answer.
