What happen when you drop your iPhone4

No camera trick, no video editing, just a simple iPhone4 drop test. Completely useless after a few times of drop. Want to buy? :)

Cloud SMS Backup

Another freeware from xda-developers! Here is the author's note at xda forum.

SMS Cloud Backup reads your SMS account (no MMS available yet) and sends a backup of all your SMS Conversation (threaded) to an email account of your choice. The body of the email is filled with your conversation (one email per conversation). You can also choose to send a backup of your SMS account an an attachment in a separate email for future restores (Restore option will be available in the next release). You can also choose to clear out your SMS account folders (Inbox, Sent, and Deleted). You may install this application on your Storage Card if you so desire.

Suggestions for use:
You can set up a filter to filter all emails from Cloud SMS Backup so they all will be stored in one location. 


Requirements:
.NET CF 3.5

World Cup 2010 on PocketPC

Want to know when is the next match? I found a few ppc software that will do the job.

1. WC 2010 Fixture
This is a paid software, for EUR 2, you can get all the information like complete schedule, standings of each team, until the final round. It also has the info of the cities and stadiums for each match. You can also update the result manually if you don't want to waste money just for the data. Also it detect the time zone you set on your phone and it will show the time and date of each of matches at your local time!

2. Resco WM Mobil 2010 (World Cup 2010)
This is also a paid software. For EUR 5.95, you will also getting the same thing like WC 2010 Fixture. Also there are list of winners and teams that enter the final 3 for each of the world cup since the first world cup since 1930. Unfortunately I cannot update the result manually. But it works like charm on my HTC Touch Elfin, unlike WC 2010 Fixture which kind of slow on my Elfin.

3. South Africa 2010
Similar function, but it should be free. According to the comments on freewarepocketpc.net, it will not works on some ppc. Not sure can manual update or no. I didn't try this yet, since WC 2010 Fixture is good enough for me.

4. South Africa WorldCup Pocket 2010
This one also free. Better comments on this software at freewarepocketpc.net. Should works for all resolutions. Not sure can manual update or not.

5. FIFA 2010
Also a free software. But only works with high resolution like 480x640, or 480x800.

iPhone4 making video call

Okay okay, iPhone4 is finally out. See the video on Steve making the video call.



The price of iPhone3GS in Malaysia would be still expensive, I still stick with my HTC Touch Elfin.

Repli - A simple freeware SMS auto-reply

Another freeware for WinMo!

Features:
  • Shows who it has replied to. Uses the contact picture if available so you can see at a glance. Useful if you're using this while driving and you are curious who texted you but you don't want to be distracted.
  • Unlike other programs of this nature, this one does not interfere with the text in anyway. It still goes to your normal inbox. It still gives the ringtone and vibrates like usual. This is by design.
  • Custom messages. Save your list of custom replies in the settings window, or simply type one into the main window quick if you're in a hurry.
Features coming later:
  • White/blacklists. Controls who does and doesn't get the replies.
  • Others? Let me know if there's anything you'd like to see in this.

This program requires the .NET Framework 3.5 to function.


Changelog:
5/31 7:40PM: Added support for saving custom messages; check the Settings menu for more. Also packaged in a cab so it can be installed and used like a proper program now.

5/30 8:30PM: Works better with QVGA devices now. I played around with the emulators, and it turns out that QVGA devices have a different DPI than VGA+ devices. So although the program ran fine on QVGA devices, it wouldn't show any actual messages it responded to, just said "and 1 more."

5/30 3:51PM: Initial release
