The only problem of HP iPAQ Glisten smart phone is that it doesn’t have a GPS receiver. The mistake will cause carrying a bulky Bluetooth receiver with the smartphone in order to enjoy Windows Mobile navigation apps like iGO 8 or Destinator.
The two most common Web browsers among smart phone users, both Windows Mobile and Symbian, are Opera Mobile and Mini. Those web browsers are manufactured by the same company but intended for different actions, but what is certain is that smartphone users have received over the power to view web content just like on PC.
Opera Mini web browser
Opera Mobile is designed to provide internet content in the most rapid and easy way the smart phone can give. This web browser can load web pages quickly enough to give smartphone user access to sites with java and content like file downloads, videos, and more.

Nokia issued in recent years the Ngage 2.0 smartphone application that intended to replace the standard Symbian smart phone games. According to their claim, the Ngage games have better graphics and sound.
Ngage games logo
It seems that the smartphone’s Symbian and Ngage games are not different in graphics and sound and Nokia misled its customers. The only thing is different is the possibility to set the buttons of the game and set portrait or landscape view in the smart phone.
The smart phone’s Ngage games are really not worth the investment of money. I recommend purchasing ordinary Symbian smartphone games. It’s much better and eats less RAM.
Every smartphone with Windows Mobile comes with Media Player application. The software is based on Microsoft’s PC app that all the basic users find it usable.
The problem in Windows Mobile smartphone media player is that it has limited support of media files. The smart phones only support WMV movie files and WMA/MP3 music files.
Coreplayer for smartphone
The solution is to use a 3rd party app for your Windows Mobile smartphone such as Coreplayer that supports more file types like AVI,MPEG and much more. Smart phones users that use media files should purchase other software instead of media player.
Symbian based smart phones often require a lot of RAM. When you open a heavy application on these smartphones you often encounter a lack of random access memory which causes discomfort in daily use on the device.
MemoryUp is Symbian OS software that designed specifically to clean up unused RAM to increase the amount of memory on smart phone. To my surprise the application shows as if it cleans memory of the smartphone, but really is not doing anything.
The solution I found is the best for Symbian smartphones is to close all opened apps before executing massive software. Another way is turning off the smart phone and then turns it on again.
Bluetooth feature is very useful in Windows Mobile smartphones. Most smart phone users using file transfer function between the devices, but there are more functions that they not use.
Bluetooth logo
Windows Mobile smartphone devices can share internet connection with the PC via Bluetooth. This allows browsing through the smart phone data plan on a laptop if there is no wifi hotspot in the area.
Another use of Windows Mobile smart phone Bluetooth is the ability to connect external device to it. You can connect devices like mouse, keyboard, headsets and much more. This feature increases the usage of your smartphone.
One other option that I found is great is the possibility to use the PC speaker with the smartphone. You can make calls with your smart phone device and hear the conversation from the speakers. The Windows Mobile Bluetooth function is available in all new smartphones.

Good software that designed for Windows Mobile smart phone is Shazam. The application enables smartphone users to know details about a song without knowing even the name of it.

Imagine yourself sitting in a bar and hear a good song. You take out your windows mobile smartphone and within seconds find the song name, artist and album. Shazam taping 30 seconds of the song into your smart phone and then connects to its database to search for a match.
This smart phone app is very easy to use. Windows Mobile interface allows a clear view of Shazam database. The software is highly recommended to all smartphone owners.
Recently, after the entry of the smartphone Android operating system, Symbian stood behind. Android is open source smart phone OS that allows code development by third-party programmers.
Symbian Foundation announced that Symbian OS will become an open source. This move intended to attract users of smartphones to return this operating system. Open source is very attractive because it gives freedom for smart phone users to improve and update it as they please.
Symbian operating system for smartphone devices
The advantage of Symbian operating systems for smart phones is its age. Nokia, one of the largest companies, using this operating system on a regular basis for the smartphones it produces so the chances that this operating system will disappear from the market is very slight.
Windows Mobile 7 is an operating system for smartphone devices that many of us waiting for it. However I will mention that WM7 has a few disappointments by rumors on the Internet. According to the rumors, features that were available for the older smart phone’s OS will be missing.
Windows Mobile roadmap
Multitasking will not be possible on Windows Mobile 7 operating system. Switching between applications on the smartphone will cause the other apps to pause. Applications can’t be installed from the memory card anymore. Installing new software on the smart phone will be allowed only through Microsoft Marketplace (like iPhone). WM7 will not support Flash; Microsoft is apparently not interested in user’s browsing experience.
The disadvantages of the smartphone operating system is very significant and I’m sure there will be more, but still from what is expected, Windows Mobile 7 operating system will be one of the most powerful smart phone OS. Do not judge the WM7 until it released to the market.
Amazon Unbox is a service that allows the purchase of movies over the Internet and downloading it directly to your PC. The site recently added a new option that allows downloading films costumes especially for Windows Mobile smartphone, what increases the use of smart phones among people.
Unbox service for smartphone
Amazon Unbox adopted the movies for Windows Mobile smartphone devices and saves many people lives. Watching movies on the smart phone are so convenient and saving the need for portable players that just extorting money from people.
Amazon Unbox definitely recommended for all Windows Mobile smartphone users. Downloading of movies is possible via the PC and then you can transfer them to the smart phone and watch them through media player application.
Another feature recently added to smart phone devices is the wifi. Adding this feature to the devices increased the smartphone internet use because it saves the cost of mobile browsing. The wi fi receiver began its glory from the laptop computers.
The WiFi logo
Unfortunately, the wifi receivers of smart phone devices are not as strong as laptop computers and consume a lot of energy from the battery of the device. Laptop wi fi receiver can connect to a router from up to 80 meter against the smart phone’s receiver that connects from only 10 meters.
Using the wi fi feature of the smart phones does not pay off outside home and meant for home wireless internet connection only. Let’s hope the future smartphone wifi receivers will support far more as laptops to allow free browsing experience everywhere.
The new smartphones that keep coming out contain a lot of abilities. One of the most used features of the latest smart phone devices is the internal GPS that gives the Windows Mobile users a perfect navigation solution.
GPS
A new Windows Mobile GPS smartphone actually comes with a basic navigation app such as Google Maps that isn’t helping much for heavy drivers (like me). The solution for that problem is to purchase better GPS software for your smart phone like iGO or Destinator that saves you bandwidth cost.
Those interested in GPS smartphone, almost all the new Windows Mobile devices contain a receiver. I highly recommended the Samsung Omnia 2 that is in my opinion the most powerful smart phone these days. And remember: don’t put your brain on the GPS and hands on the wheel.
HTC is definitely one of the most recommended companies for smartphones. Smart phones users who are planning to buy a new device I say go on HTC.
HTC's great mobiles
HTC has a variety of smartphone devices with two main operating systems: Windows Mobile and Android. Both these open operating systems are allowing installation of variety third-party applications, some free and some fee, but the main goal of these smart phones is to take the PC experience to anywhere.
HTC smartphone devices include powerful technical specifications that help the users to open multiple programs on the smart phone, run massive games, browse the web faster and much more.
I recommend all the smart phone users to think about HTC device. The quality of her smartphone is worth the price. I wish you all a very technological day.
Windows Mobile, one of the strongest operating systems for smart phones is about to be released in its new version. The new operating system would consume the smartphone devices to be much more powerful.
The Windows Mobile OS logo
According to Microsoft‘s claim, Windows Mobile 7 operating system will be released to the smartphone market at the fourth quarter of 2010. The smart phones that will include the future operating system will be required to include powerful technical specifications. The minimum requirements will be 1 GHz processor speed and WVGA screen.

Many smartphone users saw the devices with non touch screen. These devices contain the Windows Mobile operating system as well. But what are really the differences between smart phones with touch screen and those who don’t have?
Windows Mobile is definitely a good operating system, and most of the smart phone users would agree with me. Devices without the touch screen designed to allow users to enjoy the properties of smartphones and keeping of normal cellular appearance.
smartphone device without a touch screen
You can send/receive emails, read Office files, browse the web browser and install the advanced third-party applications such as Windows Mobile smart phones with touch screen. Smartphone without touch screen is more resistant to breaking and is usually smaller then devices with touch screen.
The only drawback of smart phone without touch screen is the lack of applications that designed for it. It turns out that most third-party programs are designed for Windows Mobile smartphones with touch screen. Now make your decision what device is more suitable for you.
Many cellular users among us start to think about buying a smartphone device. I decided to write tips for people who want to buy a touch screen smart phone. Those tips are very useful for deciding what device to buy.
