I think the HTC is an amazing machine  with a lot of powerful hardware but it is handicapped by Windows Mobile that is not compatible with most of the new, hot software nor a whole lot of Web sites.

Unless something changes radically, I'm never buying another Windows Mobile device again.

I don't care if I've got the most powerful CPU in the world, it's useless if it can't run apps I want to use.

Couldn't agree more, buddy. I read that it may be possible to install Android in the near future. In the mean time I am trying to over come the WinMo hurdles and perhaps buy some good apps.

On my Palm I used Agendus every day, so will try to get that for the HTC Touch Pro 2.

I understand your problems!

But some apps requires .NET Compact Framework 3.5 to run on WM, maybe this is what you need? I can confirm that with this instal you will be able to get A LOT more of application to your phones! Smiley

Agendus now installed and I am happy Smiley I can now easily schedule a meeting with a person whose record I am looking at in my Contacts list, and more! I have also installed the Vehicle tracking program, which is good for tax and the Stock Market program - which lasted 10 minutes, which is how long it took to realize that it only works with the US stock market. HELLO GUYS - there is a whole world out there, not just the US. LOL.

Also installed My Pocket Bible with a heap of translations, which I had on the Palm. I only needed to buy the WM reader for $10, so well worth the migration.

Next came S2U2 to be able to manage security a bit better.

And last, but not least SPB Backup.

So I feel better now and glad that I bought the HTC TP2 after all  Cheesy

I know I will be looking at other apps in the future, but I am a lot happier now. Can you recommend a nice Database app, anyone? Well, what do you know? There is a WM version of my Palm's HandBase too! Kewl. Bit price tho'. Anything cheaper?

Costs USD 20 bucks. I think I can do better using Mobile Excel, but won't be as pretty.

I am totally new to all this tech stuff and phones so if anyone can help me i greatly appreciate it. I have a Touch pro (sprint) trying to get it to run as well as possible. I need the sprint Nav, Mp3trimmer, Longer battery life, and a better search engine like skyfire. I am downloading the NETCF what do I do next to get better performance for the apps?

Mp3 trimmer & Sprint Nav should be factory loaded on your phone.

(After a hard-reset and initial calibration, the phone informs you that it will now load the server specific software - which includes these programs.)

Skifire is a cab download, as far as I know. Battery life won't be great, but I believe we have a couple of threads discussing it.

Best thing is to dive into the forum and start reading. Feel free to use the search function to help you with specific issues. If you can't find them, ask away Smiley
