PocketPCAddict Reviews Spb Pocket Plus 2.0
Posted by Pat Logsdon in "ARTICLE" @ 05:00 PM
"You know how there are those apps that you hear about for a long time, maybe even years, however you never seem to find the time to try them and when you finally do you hit yourself in the head and say "This is great! Why didn't I try this sooner?" It was true for me in using the Opera Browser and it was true for me with Resco Explorer. When SPB Software announced they had updated SPB Plus to 2.0, I knew their SPB Plus 1.x was popular among Pocket PC users, but I was using Battery Pack by Omega One and didn't really see a reason to try it.
Well, Omega One changed their licensing strategy, irritating some long time users of their product -- Including yours truly. :evil: But not only that, I started seeing that a bunch of custom skins for Pocket Plus 2.0 were suddenly popping up all over the place written by Juni and other Pocket PC skin experts...So I was intrigued and thought it was time to give Pocket Plus a try. So was I hitting myself in the head saying "Why didn't I try this sooner?" Or was I scrambling for the "Remove Programs" applet in settings to uninstall ASAP? Read the rest of the review to find out ;)"
Brad Isaac has written a great review with lots of tasty screenshots. His comment about Omega One's Battery Pack is also very interesting. Is there anyone here who switched to Pocket Plus 2.0 from Battery Pack? Care to share any thoughts on the differences, or your reason for switching? :mrgreen:
