Excellent software for my phone, improves OS a lot.

Well worth the money.
I would pay the money just to get the ability to add shortcuts to the "desktop".

It is a must have program for your Pocket PC. I love program shortcuts in Tabs on Today screen and a lot of utilities, like ZIP, properties on files, etc. Program brings to PDA missing features of desktop computer.

This application provides multiple utilities for your Pocket PC 2002. While your Pocket PC only minimizes an application when you tap on the (x) or (ok) button, this application lets you a close an application completely instead of just minimizing it. It has a task manager which can be accessed by tapping and holding the (x) or (ok) button. You can open multiple Pocket Internet Explorer windows and also make them full screen. It has a Today screen plug-in which shows the remaining battery power in hours and minutes, the remaining storage space, an option to change the backlight settings, and a configurable launcher. The application also enables you to set repeating alarms on your Pocket PC 2002, which by default sounds alarms only once.

Spb Pocket Plus is a software application that will allow you to enhance your current Pocket PC operating system with some functions that the PPC users were missing or just plain wished they had.
This application is like a combination of Wisbar, SuperAlert, BatteryPack and MultiIE. Pocket Plus definitely gives you the extra functions you were missing.

I give Spb Pocket Plus 2.0 the full 5 Geekheads for Quality because it worked without any issues while improving the quality of the operating system. The number of options available is a significant improvement over the previous version, and features requested by users were implemented in this well designed application.
I am also giving Spb Pocket Plus 2.0 the full 5 Geekheads for Geekness because of the ability to always know your battery status, and being able to launch or open any document or application you want right from your Today screen is awesome. I would give it even more than 5 if I could, and this application easily earns a Geek.com Pick from me!

One big non-visual improvement is the overall speed of the plug-in, even after a soft-reset the plug-in appears quickly and responds quickly. It feels like a lighter version to me! From my discussions with the developers this was a goal that they set for this version and required extensive re-writes of underlying code...
This versions has a big improvement in speed that can be measured without the need for benchmarking software.

Spb continues to improve the pocketPlus all the time. This time the improvement is more related to the contents rather than the interface. I would even dare to say that the program works faster than ever and overall impression is that the program is an inter grated part of the operating system instead of a third party program.
Spb Pocket Plus is like a good wine, it becomes better over the years.

Spb Pocket Plus is a Today plug-in that has multiple functions both on the Today screen as well as in the Windows Mobile 2002 or 2003 shell. Simply put, Spb Pocket Plus is a must-have application as it brings the functionality and usefulness of the platform to a more complete level.
Spb Software House is one of the leading developers in the Windows Mobile arena and Spb Pocket Plus proves it. The application is well designed and behaved and functions exceptionally well. Additionally, their support is responsive and accurate with many additional FAQ's online for each of their products. Spb Software House makes great products but is also great to work with personally.
