We got word from Spb Software that their Mobile Shell product just arrived in its third iteration. Version 3.0 is now available for Microsoft Windows Mobile 5 and Professional Editions, so amateurs need not apply. ;) New licenses are $29.95 while owners of the prior version can upgrade for $14.95 and there’s a 15-day free trial to have a look-see. The software adds a ton of useful customization to your Windows Mobile user interface:
* Professional and Lifestyle home screens (for work and for play)
* Widget-based photo contacts with Facebook integration
* Widgets
* 3-D carousel and hardware accelerator support
* Ringtones, contacts, profiles, and wireless management
* Many integrated tools such as Weather, World Time, etc.
* Highly customizable for the needs of phone makers and mobile operators
Just like the name says: it’s a shell that makes your device far easier to use. It’s not bad on the eyes either: check the above video walkthrough for the 3-D carousel, and if that doesn’t convince you to give a try, perhaps this review at MobilityMinded pointed out by Mobility Site will.
