How can it be that a Windows Mobile device can run Playstation game with all the graphics and speed that needed? That is what I asked myself when I first heard about FPSEce emulator. This great app really runs great on Pocket PC but only in two models – Dell Axim x50v and x51v.
Playing Playstation game on Pocket PC
FPSEce emulator runs almost all Sony Playstation games that released to the market. Metal Gear Solid, Tekken 3 and Tomb Raider Legends are all you need to pass another ride on the bus with your Windows Mobile Pocket PC. But don’t forget PSX games are big so you’ll need an extra storage card dedicated to it.
The FPSEce emulator is free for download for any Windows Mobile Pocket PC users. But I’ll recommend you to use the application only if you have Dell Axim x50v or x51v because if not, you’ll spend the rest of your day trying to play Playstation game with a slow FPS. Have fun with your new game machine.
It’s been a long time since I heard the word Pocket PC. The portable operating system of Microsoft, Windows Mobile, has leaving the PPC devices. Once Windows Phone 7 OS will be released to the market those devices will disappear forever.
Bye Bye Pocket PC
Smart phones began to be distributed throughout the world countries while keeping the attraction of new customers to the Windows Mobile operating system. PDA devices are no longer being sold without a phone feature what makes it smartphone, no Pocket PC.
Windows Mobile operating system is going to grow but the Pocket PC devices will be extinct. In any case this does not mean the PDA features will stop; only that device will include the phone feature and will be called as smartphone instead of PPC.
Pocket PC devices always attracted customers to the Windows Mobile operating system. HP, one of the best known companies among these devices, also stopped to produce new PPC models like other companies. The main reason is the entry of WM based smartphones.
There is no need to worry as you can see, Pocket PC devices diminished because the technological progress has brought cellular users the smartphones. People don’t want to take two devices with them and want Windows Mobile OS to be included in their smart phone.
Some people still use Pocket PC devices but slowly they all start using smartphones. Windows Mobile is not expected to disappear and even the new 7 version is about to be released and will include more features than its predecessors.
The quantity of PDA users is increasing over the years. Many people discover the power of Windows Mobile operating system and its uses in everyday life. There are many companies that manufacture Pocket PC devices but the veteran of all is HP.
HP Company logo
HP has a wide range of Windows Mobile PDAs that provide the perfect solution for anyone who wants to organize his life in electronic device. One of the recommended Pocket PC models is the iPAQ 111 that its price is cheap and it gives you all you need.
There are still many companies like Dell or Asus, which produce Windows Mobile Pocket PC devices, but in terms of price and design, HP lead. Their full PDA catalog can be viewed on their iPAQ website.
Everyone knows the series of Windows Mobile Pocket PC devices from HP. I could not help noticing the iPAQ 110 Classic model that provides good performance for a very cheap price. This ppc device provides a solution for light users.
HP's great Pocket PC
IPAQ 110 Pocket PC comes with Microsoft’s Windows Mobile 6 operating system that includes applications such as Office suit, Media Player, Internet Explorer, MSN Messenger and more. I noticed that this HP’s ppc design looks like an improved version of the older 1930 model.
The technical specification of the iPAQ 110 ppc is not bad at all. This HP Pocket PC contains screen that displays a resolution of 240×320 pixels. It has a strong processor of 624 MHz that efficient for Windows Mobile when you open multiple applications simultaneously.
IPAQ 110 ppc has 64MB of SDRAM and 256MB of ROM. In addition, the Pocket PC comes with an expansion slot that appropriate SD cards which is very necessary when you install third-party applications on Windows Mobile.
This Windows Mobile Pocket PC advantage is its price. 299$ is all what you’ll need to pay to get this wonderful device. You can purchase it from HP web site. IPAQ 110 is the best you can find at this affordable price.
The most important data these days is smartphone and Pocket PC devices data. Losing information on those devices will affect every user life. Spb backup is a great solution for backing up files of Windows Mobile devices.
Spb Backup for Pocket PC device
Spb backup was created especially for lazy Windows Mobile smartphone/Pocket PC users and come with an option that generates automatic backup. The application will store your files in a standalone executable archive that doesn’t need involve of the app.

A trial version of Spb Backup is available for download via Spb Software House web site. The app supporting Windows Mobile 5, 6, 6.1 and even 2003 smartphone/Pocket PC devices.
Asus is disappointing with her Windows Mobile Pocket PC, the A730, which does not constitute progress in ppc devices. This device has poor specification that will not provide ideal conditions for work. Asus could do more then this!
Shitty Pocket PC
Asus A730 has disappointing specification. The Pocket PC comes with Windows Mobile 2003 that is an old version of the operating system. In addition it has a 64MB RAM not sufficient even to open 2 programs simultaneously, compared to Dell Axim ppc that comes with 128MB of RAM. The device does not come with built-in WiFi tuner so you can’t enjoy wireless internet. The 520 MHz processor of the Asus Pocket PC device is its only advantage, but in combination with other specification, this is not contributing much.
Asus A730 is a big disappointment from a successful global company. I do not recommend purchasing this Windows Mobile Pocket PC device.
Many of us have heard recently about GPS devices called PNA that come with navigation software and looks like a PDA devices. Make no mistake! Pocket PC devices are very different.

After you heard the explanation on PDA and PNA devices you may choose your Windows Mobile device
