I'm a little concerned about the criteria being used to say an application works or does not work here. I see applications that only work partially being listed as working and others being listed as not working. I'd suggest we do two things:

1. List fully compatible, partial compatibile, and not working into 3 groups.
2. List the reason that the poster states a software doesn't work or why it partially works.

I know that some of the software in the working list do have some issues with WM5

I agree, that's the method that I used at:

I have been thinking about this too. Maybe we should reorganize the list a little, on the other hand, shouldn't the software work perfectly, as intended, therefor partially working apps should be listed as not working, shouldn't they?

well, having a partially working list could help users and developers to know how serious is the incompatibility problem of the program. You have more chances to see a fixed version of the partially working programs than of those listed in not working.

SuperCalendar version 3.4 has just been released which is fully compatible with the Windows Mobile 5 OS.

You are probably right, on the other hand listing the partialy working on non working list would help to put some pressure on the developers, who haven't updated their software yet...

TDS Cogo works.

Delorme XMapHH Pro works. (Brute force vga hack works well with this also, but makes Nav Panel non visible in normal display)

As to conventions for testing you know that people are not testing every possible function in a program but mostly the things they use day to day. Chances are that this sort of testing will give people a good basis to choose with though

probably....
List updated by the way

Has anyone verified that Scarybear's ClearNotify and CheckNotifications work (along with WakeupTweak)?

I should receive my x51v this week and the above are a part of my standard loading to overcome the potential for missed alarms, yet I haven't seen them specifically listed on a compat list yet.

Thanks.

But so far nobody has complained about the Missed Alarms bug. May be it´s gone in WM5 ;)

iSilo is listed av partially working. The problem with the toolbar is fixed in iSilo 4.29 beta 1 according to iSilo. Hopefully the final 4.29 version we'll soon be released.

I haven't had a problem yet... :cross my fingers:

Thanks ctitanic! I'll keep my fingers crossed, too. I assume it is still smart to apply your 60 second tweak in T2k, and glad to see that T2k is fully WM5 compatible (no surprise, of course ... you always stay on top of the latest).

Pocket Quicken 2.03 works on the x51v but does not sync. Anybody have a fix for this? Or an idea for a solution. I love Pocket Quicken and don't want to upgrade to 2.5 if I don't have to since I have been using 2.03 for a couple of years.
