Further Traveling with Pharos -- the Traveler 127 reviewed

Posted by Don Tolson in "Pocket PC Hardware" @ 09:00 AM

Software Included by Pharos

The software package provided by Pharos is almost exactly the same as that provided in the Traveler 117. It includes:

  • SIM Manager - managing contacts held on the SIM card;
  • Unit Converter - from Spb Traveler?;
  • Spb Mobile Shell + Spb Menu;
  • Spb Traveler (demo version);
  • aGPS - for downloading of satellite ephemeris data from the internet;
  • AutoConfig - sets up data connections for cell phone providers;
  • Backup Manager - providing a simple backup and restore capability;
  • JETCET PDF 5;
  • Phone Profile - where you can adjust various options within the phone firmware;
  • MIDlet Manager; and
  • Task Manager.

Figure 10: A shot of the Today screen running standard Spb Menu. In the system icon row at the top, just right of the center of the screen, you can see the keyboard mode icon, marked as 'abc'. This changes through 'ABC' and '123', depending upon the toggling of the function and shift keys on the keyboard.

Figure 11: Here's a screen capture of the Task Manager application provided. Nothing special here, but a nice addition.

Figure 12: I suspect this Unit Converter application is part of the suite that comes with the trial version of Spb Traveler installed on the Traveler 127.
