Pocket PC Best Software Awards - Finalists Announced
Posted by Jason Dunn in "NEWS" @ 03:01 PM
"Each year Pocket PC magazine conducts its Best Software Awards. The awards help users select the software that best suits their Windows Mobile Pocket PC and Smartphone needs by honoring companies that produce outstanding software.
...These productivity and entertainment software awards are given for products appropriate for individual end-users. They can also be applicable in Enterprise, but only if they also function well as stand-alone products.
Pocket PC magazine's Nitin Gupta and Diane Dumas initially categorized and nominated this software from the PocketPCmag.com Encyclopedia of Software and Accessories database. The nominations were turned over to the 2003 Board of Experts, who modified and added to the list. The descriptions of all the nominated products are included in the 2004 Pocket PC magazine Buyers Guide. All those who subscribe through the end of 2003 will receive this issue."
I helped judge some of the tie breakers this year, in addition to judging a few categories (nothing where Spb had products mind you!), and it was a tough go. There are some awesome programs out there, and the sheer number of tie-breakers was testament to the fact that every judge had his or her favourite.
So what do you think of the finalists? Did they miss your favourite application? Remember the deadline was at the end of July (I think).
