Pocket PC Island, the place for handhelds & PDA's - Pocket PC Articles: "BugMe! Notepad for Palm OS Earns Rave Reviews from Bityard Magazine, Pocket Anywhere and PocketGoddess

via MobilityNewswire) April 19, 2004--Recently published reviews by Bityard Magazine, Pocket Anywhere and PocketGoddess all agree that BugMe! Notepad, a completely re-designed version of Electric Pocket's famous BugMe! note-taking and reminder-alarm application, is a �must have' for Palm OS 5.x handhelds and smartphones.

Preserving features that made the original 'sticky note' program so successful, such as the ability to jot handwritten notes, create sketches and set alarms, BugMe! Notepad offers several new enhancements, providing a number of options that are both productive and entertaining.

Improvements include scrollable notes that enable the creation of annotations larger than device screens, the ability to import images from memory cards, and an assortment of clip art images and �wav' alarm sounds, just to name a few. Both clip art and text blocks can be dragged and dropped anywhere on a BugMe! note.

'This is not your grandmother's version,' says Ronny Ko, Bityard Magazine product reviewer. 'New features like clipart, greater tracing and object manipulation as well as the ability to include screenshots and images from other applications are great improvements that should make BugMe! a much useful application.'

To read Bityard Magazine's entire review, visit: http://www.bityard.com/article.php?sid=626&mode=nested&order=0

In Pocket Anywhere's comprehensive evaluation of BugMe! Notepad, product reviewer Jim McCarthy writes, 'BugMe! Notepad is a one-of-kind program that no knock-off can reproduce better. Electric Pocket has defined, optimized and redefined the art of scribble and photos to a new usefulness for any kind of Palm OS enthusiast or joe user. Once you catch this "bug", BugMe! Notepad won't ever leave your Palm – it's that good."

"You may be wondering why I'm so excited, especially considering the fact that many Palm OS handhelds already ship with a Notes application that allows you to write handwritten notes," says PocketGoddess product reviewer Jen Edwards. "BugMe! does a lot more than that though, adding some extra features that you may not have known that you wanted, but after using them you'll realize that they're pretty cool."

Jen goes on to explain several BugMe! Notepad advantages, including color choices and pen styles, but admits, "The really cool stuff comes in when you start investigating what the buttons at the bottom of the screen can do."

Pocket PC Island, the place for handhelds & PDA's - Pocket PC Articles: "Pocket PC Magazine Feature Article - PowerCAD Brings Workstation Power To The Pocket PC

A new feature article in Pocket PC Magazine illustrates how businesses such as Into Design Group of West Jordan, Utah, are saving time, improving customer service, and increasing profits using PowerCAD� CE from GiveMePower Corporation (OTCBB: GMPW) on Pocket PC computers running Microsoft's Windows CE� mobile operating system.

Highlighting PowerCAD's unique ability to deliver workstation power on a Pocket PC, the success story describes how Into Design is able to save multiple steps in the design and manufacturing of trade show booths by providing customers with accurate three-dimensional views and renderings of proposed displays on a handheld computer, ensuring the customer understands the proposal before the physical product exists and avoiding the inconvenience of a laptop computer.

'PowerCAD CE is exactly what we have been looking for and exactly what the Pocket PC was made for', said Robert Horn of Into Design. 'Ever since we got it, we have not had to work on our desktop computers at all. We can start drawings from scratch on-site and keep working on them in the car, the couch � anywhere. We tried all the other mobile CAD systems, but PowerCAD CE, in our opinion, is the only true CAD program for the Pocket PC.'

Into Design has joined numerous Fortune 500 companies such as Maytag Corporation and General Dynamics Corporation, as well as America's top governmental institutions including the Centers for Disease Control, the National Institutes of Health, and multiple branches of the U.S. Military, who are taking advantage of PowerCAD CE's combination of power, size and direct compatibility with desktop leader AutoCAD�, to mobilize their workforces.

In addition to its PowerCAD CE mobile/wireless CAD solutions, GiveMePower's product offerings include PowerCAD Pro™ and PowerCAD LT+™ for Windows® desktop computing, and PowerCAD Architect™, a new user-friendly software system that automates 2 and 3-dimensional design for small, medium and large-scale enterprises involved in residential building design and light commercial construction.

Pocket PC Island, the place for handhelds & PDA's - Pocket PC Articles: "Astraware Rolls Out GTS Racing Challenge for Pocket PC Platform Handhelds

via MobilityNewswire) July, 2003 -- Astraware Ltd and Pazzazz Games are launching a new Pocket PC version of the popular Palm OS auto racing game, GTS Racing Challenge. The game is a 3D racing game that delivers console-quality visuals and game-play to Pocket PC handhelds.

After GTS Racing Challenge was first released, the media universally applauded the game for its excellent graphics and game-play. BargainPDA commented, 'Astraware is behind another great game--this time it's the best looking racing game the Palm OS has ever seen,' while Aximsite remarked, 'No other racing games that are currently available on Pocket PC even come close to this one.'

The game-play of GTS Racing Challenge is similar to SNES / Game Boy Advance titles like F-Zero or Mario Kart, but with large, realistic car sprites rendered in full color from 3D models. Both the players' view and cars are free to rotate in 3D, and the raceway is fully texture-mapped.

The cars race along roadways with photo-realistic skylines. The game offers a wide variety of racing options, including 32 separate racetracks and three different super-charged models of GTS race cars. Players will enjoy power sliding around corners, skidding into a U-turn for a sudden change of direction, or even cranking the wheel and 'doing doughnuts' on the spot.

Taken together, these features put GTS Racing Challenge at the cutting edge of PDA games.

'GTS Racing Challenge has already wowed the media and consumers alike as the most playable and thrilling car racing game available for the Palm OS,' said Howard Tomlinson, Astraware's CEO. 'Bringing this title to Pocket PCs will excite fans who have been eagerly awaiting the first quality race driving game for the platform."

Astraware has long been recognized as one of the top producers of PDA games while Pazzazz Games enjoys a solid reputation for developing 3D games for console game systems and PDAs.

Astraware and Pazzazz Games first worked together in 2002 to develop a more advanced racing game than had ever before been available for Palm Powered™ handhelds, resulting in the launch of the original GTS Racing Challenge for Palm OS in February of 2003."

December 20 2003--Bryans Road, Maryland, December 19, 2003 � PPX3k today released their landmark product, PPX For Pocket PC, an enhanced shell, User Interface design, and usage tool, that finally brings a custom interface to the Pocket PC masses. This program allows anyone to create a custom interface that suits their needs instead of using the normal, stock, Pocket PC interface as supplied with the operating system.

Michael Pollard and the staff of PPX3k have been working diligently to create an environment for the Pocket PC that is both easy to use and easy to create. Utilizing industry standard bitmaps and easy access dialogs, anyone can now create a User Interface that works for them. Michael Pollard, lead administrator and programmer for PPX3k has been leading this effort since early in 2003.

With this release, users can have virtual pages, layers, overlay images, icon support and plug-in compatibility. Mike Stous, an IT Operations & Support Specialist for a Midwestern company said 'PPX breaks the mold imposed by the rigid Today Screen, allowing you to have your PPC exactly the way you want it. Instead of how someone else thought it would appeal to the masses.'

Gustavo Victoria, an International Liaison Officer based in Ecuador, commented that 'PPX will be an indispensable add-on in the international PPC market because of its outstanding capabilities and the option users will have to create interfaces utilizing their own native languages." referring to the ability to use bitmap graphics created by the users themselves.

PPX For PPC is an enhanced shell with interface design capabilities that allows for the replacement of the standard Pocket PC interface. It allows you to replace the Today program and the standard Taskbar with a more functional version, while safely leaving those objects accessible if needed. PPX For PPC supports Virtual Pages, Layers and Today plug-ins to make the computing environment easier to navigate as well as more pleasing to the eye. PPX is easily customized using industry standard bitmaps (.BMP's) and is easily configured via dialogs.

PPX For Pocket PC has been introduced to the market at a special discounted rate of $9.99 (U.S.) through the remainder of 2003. It is expected to rise to $14.99 beginning 2004.
