Review : SPB Mobile Shell

Warthog reviews the Brand New SPB Mobile Shell!

"I’ll spare you the hyperbole. The developers at Spb simply got it right with Mobile Shell. This software could top the list of the “must-have” software for all WM5 devices in 2007. Novice users will appreciate Mobile Shell's simplicity. Power users will appreciate its flexibilty. It looks gorgeous. It is incredibly fast. Pocket PC users will enjoy it. WM5 Smartphone users will wonder how they managed to live without it. "

Read the complete review

See next post for a video demo of the software...

oh, and if you want to purchase SPB Mobile Shell in our store, Aximsite's cut of the sale will go to aid the Red Cross for the Month of February.

Yeah, but anyone can type a few hundred words! It takes a real brave man to make a 18 minute video demo!

Yep. I agree it takes someone brave, but you are wrong. Not everyone can throw down words.

My video is probaly full of inacuracies and bad grammer, but... I DON'T CARE. :)

The video does the job, it gets the visual out there.

cLaunch is a good freeware alternative to SPBPocket+ or iLauncher, although they both do more

MobileShell is a lot more. It does combine many features of MOST of their apps into a single tool.

Personally, I'm not real fond of $30.00 for this app, I'd like it more if it were like $15.00 or $20.00. Their apps are a bit more pricy than their SBSH counterparts, so the featureset provided here is in line with the prices of their apps

Thanks warthog for the review. I participated in the beta for the program and found the biggest shortfalls were the lack of integration with 3rd party PIMs and the RAM footprint. SPB says that 3rd part PIM integration is high on the list of features to add after fixing critical bugs.

Mobile Shell on my x51v takes a minimum of 3.5 MB to run and at times grows to ~5.8 MB. I would be interested in using it if it could replace other programs like Pocket Breeze, Wisbar Advanced 2/WAD, etc., but at the moment it can't. That's too much RAM to sacrifice while still running other programs that do things Mobile Shell doesn't. It's possible over time SPB will add more customization options that will allow it to replace other programs.
