SPB Mobile Shell

A couple of weeks ago, a friend of mine (Mina Attaalla) introduced me to software for Windows Mobile called SPB Mobile Shell, to use on my PPC Phone (xv6700).  I installed it, started to use it, and instantly fell in love with it!  It is an amazing program that allows you to use many features of the phone with your finger instead of using your stylus.  It has a cool animations, photo dial pad, and shortcuts to all your programs.  You can download a 15 day trial version from the company’s website after filling in your email address…
