Three from Astraware
I haven’t posted a new review in a long while—there’s been a lot going on, of course, but a large part of the blame rests solely with Astraware—their new Solitaire game for Palm OS and Windows Mobile devices is practically perfect in every way and almost impossible to stop playing.

Agendus for Windows Mobile and Agendus for Windows Outlook Edition
One of the things I missed most in my switch from Palm OS to Windows Mobile for my daily device is Agendus—I’d used the application since way back when it was called ActionNames, and depended on it heavily every single day. When I head that iambic was finally creating a Windows Mobile version, I couldn’t wait to try it out.

Warfare Incorporated
Some reviews are harder to write than others, and this one has been eally hard. Not because Warfare Incorporated isn’t a great game, since it is— but because it is a great game. I’ve been playing it for weeks now, and this is the first time I’ve been able to tear myself away from it!

Palm Reader Pro
One of my favorite uses of a Palm OS device, aside from getting organized and playing games (not necessarily in that order) is reading ebooks. I’m a voracious reader, and I simply love having several books with me at any given time. Instead of having to lug around a bag full of books, I just put the electronic editions in my Kyocera 7135. That’s a good thing for my overloaded bookshelves as well!

Pocket TV Browser for Palm OS and Pocket PC
I’m warning you now: I don’t think I’ve been this excited about a piece of handheld software in a very long time, and it’s certainly going to show in this article! I’m the first to admit that I watch way too much TV, and I’ve always been annoyed at the lack of a really good “TV Guide” type of program for either the Palm OS or the Pocket PC. And now I have both, thanks to Pocket TV Browser.

SplashPhoto
SplashData Week continues with a review of SplashPhoto, an application that lets you view photos on your Palm OS handheld. It makes sense too- if your handheld can be used to keep track of personal information like bank account numbers and passwords, it should also let you share your photos with others. Especially digital photos— why go through the hassle of printing all of them in order to enjoy them on the go? SplashPhoto takes care of everything for you.

SplashID
One of the first things people usually ask about when they get a handheld is what sort of program they can use to keep their ATM passwords, credit card numbers, and calling card access codes safe. People generally like the idea of having all of that sort of information in one convenient place, but they’re usually worried about both security and organization. Fortunately there’s a company out there that’s dedicated to helping people keep track of things like that, along with some other cool ideas. That company is SplashData, and this week we’re going to be taking a closer look at all of the applications they offer, along with an interview with the company president later in the week. So if you have all sorts of information you’d like to keep handy, along with some photos, shopping lists, and a checkbook register you can never seem to balance, stay tuned— this week is for you here at PocketGoddess.com. And if you haven’t registered yet, do so now— members are eligible to win some great prizes, courtesy of our friends at SplashData!

Mondo Pondo
I figured I’d get Scribble week off to a roaring good start with a review of Mondo Pondo, the adult party game that will have you and all your friends in giggles. Just remember though that there are two versions of this game, one normal and one rather naughty— it’s up to you to determine exactly what kind of fun you want to have at your next party.

Crystal Quest
Sometimes it isn’t the fancy graphics and sound effects that make a game memorable—sometimes it’s the nostalgia. I sometimes wax poetic about the glories of Kaboom and Circus on the Atari 2600… oops sorry, wrong platform. Today I’m talking about Crystal Quest, a game with which I wasted far too many hours while I was in college all those years ago. Now that I’m in grad school, I’m wasting time with Crystal Quest for both the Palm OS and Pocket PC platforms.
