Need A Different Calculator?
Posted by Brad Adrian in "SOFTWARE" @ 07:04 AM
If you like to use your Pocket PC as a calculator, but are looking for something a little snazzier, you might want to look at FingerCalc.
"FingerCalc is a fast calculator thought as a replacement for the standard Windows Mobile 2003 calculator. FingerCalc features nice graphics with colourful 3D "pushable" buttons, and can be easily operated without the use of a stylus. FingerCalc gives you visible and auditory feedback when you operate it."
FingerCalc's buttons are a bit bigger than on the built-in calculator, so this might be nice if you've got large fingers. It looks as though the developer made room for larger keys by removing the memory keys (which I never use). It also looks like the "inverse" or "one-over-X" key is gone; I actually use that key a lot because when I do math I can never remember which number should be the denominator and which should be the numerator.
There's not a demo available for it (that I can find), but it only costs $3.45 on the Handango site.
