Skyfire Mobile Browser Demo

Check out the Video:

The Skyfire browser is set to finally bring PC-like browsing to your Windows Mobile device with crazy speeds and support for all manner of embedded content. Sure, there are ways to get Youtube and other mobile video content through proxy sites that convert on the go or with other 3rd-party applications, but this puppy does it all in one sweet and free package. Facebook and Myspace pages load up in no time, video plays in the browser, and all of this is accomplished with some server side magic on the part of the Skyfire server but is completely transparent to the user. All flavors of Windows Mobile — 5 and 6 for both touchscreen and not — are supported with the roadmap hinting at Symbian support in the near future. Sounds too good to be true? It is, and you don’t have to just take our word for it, follow the read link to get signed up for the beta, this is something that just cannot be missed.

If you live in US, you can sign up for the private beta:

PIM Backup

Features:

This tool has been made in order to replace the PPCBckpContacts application.
As its predecessor, PPCPimBackup allows to backup/restore the Personal information of the pocket pc user, but new functionalities have been added.

This tool allows to backup/restore:

- appointments
- call logs
- contacts
- messages (SMS, Mails, …) NEW !!!
- speed dials
- tasks

Restore contacts: It is possible now to restore a text file containing contacts backed up from other applications, like in Outlook Express, the only constraint is that the first line should contain the fields and the fields need a separator. (See screenshots). The tool allows to map default fields to fields found in the file. It is possible now to insert duplicates.

Backup messages: The mail database is completely parsed to retrieve all the messages stored in every directory and subdirectory. It is possible to select which account and directories should be backed up. You can save attachments as wel if they exist on the pocket pc.

Restore messages: Same as the backup, you can select which account and directories should be restored to the device. Caution, if an account doesn’t exist on the pocket pc, this application will discard the messages that belong to that account.

Restore appointments: There was a bug in PPCBckpContacts where appointments with the same name on different dates weren’t restored. This should be fixed in this tool.

Schedule backup: It is possible to schedule a backup, each day of the week and this at a specific hour. If the pocket pc is suspended, it will wake up and do the backup. You can eventually control the number of backups to keep and switch off the pocket pc after the scheduled backup is finished.
The schedule backup creates a notification that can be cleared via the Options Menu.

File types: There is only one file type now, which is .pib (Personal Information Backup), in fact it is just a zip file (so you can open it with a zip application) which contain the different text files used in PPCBckpContacts, so you can still extract these files, edit them on a pc using Excel or Notepad and eventually restore them without putting them back in the .pib file.

To do:

* MMS Backup/restore doesn’t work!
* fix problem with mms “attachments” which are stored on disk but are not considered as attachments in the cemail.vol (wonderful!)
Arcsoft MMS software uses own-defined properties (blobs) in pmailMsgs table in cemail.vol but I cannot decipher them for the moment.
*conversion of text backups <-> binary backups

The exe contained in the zip file, should be copied and launched on the pocket pc, and not on a pc.
If you have any comments, bugs report, suggestions, problems, then you could send them to this address dotfred@dotfred.net
