Major (40%) multiplatform rebates at mobile2day.de – FlexMail 2007, RDM+ etc.

The mobile2day.de folks have a (really decent!) tendency of offering some killer apps for around 40% rebate. This time (until 03/16), they also have some nice apps at a substantive rebate. Note that you only have slightly more than two days to purchase these titles – hurry up if you need them.

FlexMail 2007 Rev 2: 15,95 € instead of 24,95 € - while a bit on the memory-hungry and slow-to-boot side, THE most powerful mailer client for Windows Mobile (both Pocket PC's and Smartphones); for example, it’s the only client to support flawless IMAP IDLE. Also, it’s WAAAAAAAAY better than the built-in MS Smartphone Messaging client. (Click the links to access the product page directly; then, just press “In den Warenkorb” to start the purchasing process.)

ProfiMail (Windows Mobile) 2.88: 14,95 € instead of 21,99 € - a definitely less recommended mailer client for WinMo (both Pocket PC's and MS Smartphones). However, if you REALLY want to purchase it, now, this can be a great occasion. Also note that the Symbian S60 version is also offered at the same price.

Note that the above two applications have been thoroughly discussed & compared in my Mailer Bible.

RDM+: Remote Desktop for Windows Pocket PC 3.6.6: 23,95 € instead of 39,30 € - a remote desktop controller for WM (Pocket PC's and Smartphones; official product page HERE). A pretty new one; this is why it’s missing from my Remote Desktop Controller Bible. I’ll soon publish a review of it; preferably before the end of the (massive) rebate.

Note that RDM+ is a multi-platform product; the BlackBerry version costs 25,95 € instead of 40,45 € (I think I'll review this app REALLY quick so that I can decide whether I purchase it or not because I use my BlackBerry as my main communication device and it has no other (decent) remote desktop controller apps) and the Symbian S60 version costs 18,95 € instead of 29,95 €. Note that, while RDM+ has an iPhone version as well, mobile2day.de doesn't have an iPhone section - that is, you can't get RDM+ for the iPhone from the German folks.

BTW, still speaking of Symbian S60, MobiSystems OfficeSuite 4 (S60 3rd) 4.50 is offered for 23,95 € instead of 39,99 € - a pretty good deal, I'd say! And, if you have a Palm OS device (Treo 680 etc.), you will definitely want to check out the list of the rebates because you can get the following apps at a 40% rebate: Agendus Professional Edition 12.06, Documents To Go 10.00, PocketMirror Professional 4.3 and MobiSystems OfficeSuite Professional 7 7.50. Pretty cool rebates, eh?

The full list of the Windows Mobile apps offered for ~40% rebate is HERE (the other titles are definitely less interesting). The same for Symbian S60 is HERE, the Palm OS HERE and BlackBerry HERE.

Note that, according to PocketPlayers Reloaded, SOTI’s Pocket Controller, the best (and also the most expensive) Windows Mobile handset / PDA controller, should also be offered at a significant (20e instead of 32) rebate. However, the product page doesn’t reflect this. Hope this is only a temporary problem and it will indeed be offered for that cheap. (Should you not know the title, check out THIS for a thorough comparison to all the alternatives.)

Finally, if you don’t know German and Google Translator / any of the Babelfish services don’t help either, I’ve published a tutorial on using it HERE.

UPDATE (an hour later): thanks for the PocketPlayers Reloaded folks writing in, my attention was drawn to Pocket Controller again. It seems I didn’t see it having a rebate because my default WinMo device was set to the HTC s710 touchscreen-less MS Smartphone. After switching to Pocket PC’s (to HTC Universal – but the rebate should be shown with all PPC models; direct link HERE), I was indeed presented the lower price (19,95 € instead of 31,95 €) of Pocket Controller. It’s really a very good buy for such a low price, particularly for us Europeans – particularly if you have a (W)VGA device and/or need a controller with a registry editor and other goodies built-in.
