I just got a new phone with windows mobile and I tried to find cool/useful software to download but didn't come up with much. I'm sure a lot of you have stuff to share.

I'll start with google maps c/o scrub.

PDNet- If you can't use your phone as a modem for your laptop or you arent buying the service, this will let you.

ORB- Fileshare with your home computer. Live stream audio and video.

Slingbox & Slingbox Mobile- Connect to your cable, satelite or tivo from your phone.

Wow, Orb is fantastic. I can't believe this is free.

Are you looking for free stuff or will you pay?

Let me know what you end up installing.

I would prefer free stuff. If there's an app that does something really compelling I would consider buying it. I can't think of anything off the top of my head that would fall into that category, but I'm sure there are some out there.

So far I've installed google maps and orb. Both are awesome.

Evan,

What phone?

I know for the Q, Qusers.com is a good site for information about software and such. There is a tutorial on how to put a nintendo emulator on there, which I think is cool. Im sure the procedure is similar for any other windows based phone.

I have Orb on my PC's, I didn't realize it worked with the Blackjack. have you tried streaming audio or video? how does it work?

also, does anyone knows of a nice case/cover for the Blackjack? I'm normally anti-cover, but I travel a lot, and find a good case is worth the price you pay in bulk. my favorite is the iskin for the ipod - I would love something similar for the blackjack

EC,

I have a Blackjack. As far as I know any Windows Mobile 5 compatible software should work. I'll check out QUsers.

I have an NES emulator on my Q. It's pretty sweet.
