Cool software for the week

Here's some software (and an ebook platform) that I'm currently exploring.

StyleTap - a software for the Windows Mobile Pocket PC that allows you to run applications created for the Palm OS!!! This is very good news indeed - there's hundreds of thousands of free software available for the Palm OS and StyleTap opens the flood gates for me to use them on the Axim. Check out this software at www.styletap.com

EReader - this website and accompanying reader software provides hundreds of ebooks for download. All of them are priced ofcourse, but the selections look good and very current. Check out EReader at www.ereader.com

SkypeHeadset - and here's yet another killer app that makes Skype easier to use. This allows you to use your bluetooth headset with Skype. So you could, for example, use the mute or answer button on your bluetooth headset to control the appropriate function on Skype. Its not clear if this would work with Skype for the Pocket PC that I have loaded on the Axim, lets see how this work out. Check out the software at www.skypeheadset.co.uk

Thats it for this week. See you around. :-)
