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.
Is
this calculator, an Apple branded BrAun (model ET33/ ET88, circa 1986/87) the ultimate cause of all the supposed
design theft claims surrounding the iPhone calculator app?
Take a closer look — the iphone calc is at most, a stylised representation of the BrAun.
This finely designed Braun calculator has an eight-digit display and four-key memory storage. Battery operated, it comes with a protective travel case. #
Yes,
it’s obviously thievery. Fancy stealing gaining design queues from one’s own officially licensed merchandise.
Do people just post fact-less bull-shit for effect now? There was a time when even the worst offenders bothered to do a modicum of research.
Must be a quiet day in Redmond.

Dear Sir or Madam,
I wish to inform you I no longer give a shit about the iPhone. At all.
I don’t want to have to read yet another Pulitzer Prize attempt in describing the iPhone, that EDGE isn’t all bad (hint, it is) that we should all go out and buy one, that it’s God’s gift […]
"A PDA friendly interface for your blog. It’s (almost) XHTML compliant. You can see it in action by visiting this site in a mobile browser." — a round about way of pointing out that this is a great plugin and that the ‘foo is now mobleised - savvy?!
"June 5th, the day HTC promised to make Major announcement , it is fact and they officialy unveiled HTC Touch." — could this be an iPhone killer? Perhaps.. perhaps not.. but a windows mobile powered device has never looked so good..
