PointUI Home 1 and 1.5 was a huge success when it was released, @ the time finger friendly interface was a hole new concept on Windows Mobile. Samsung’s TouchWiz and HTC’s TouchFlo were non existant @ the time. Now after working with some major carriers ( Bell, Telstra ) they have released a new FREE version of PointUI Home 2, Pro version with more features like Auto Lock and Haptic feedback will be coming soon ( we are not aware of the Pricing for it yet ). This is not just a Today screen replacement but a whole new UI. The interface looks nothing like the 1.5 interface so give it a go and let us know what you think about it.
It supports most of the resolutions
QVGA/WQVGA
