Soft I chose for SE910

Finally, after some days of playing around my Sony-Ericsson p910 I found many useful applications to make a life much more easier.

First of all, Handy Day 2004 – it is a very cool \”summary of events\” apps for me. It pops up automatically whenever I open up a flip of my phone and shows we todays appointments, reminders, todos, new messages, time, date and system information (how much memory free/busy my phone has). In addition, this nice app has a week view, desktop and easy access to some stuff like application and control panel. Good thing about Handy Day is that you can customize many aspects like font size, colors/backgrounds, pane sizes and others.
The only thing I noted is that Handy Day 2005 did not feet me as good as 2004 (some usability problems) so I left the 2004 release.

Second thing that I found very useful (so useful that I can not use any alternative) is Decuma Alphabetic Handwriting recognition. It is a much more flexible (compared to the original) character recognition mechanism. I can even teach this one how to understand my ugly handwriting :)

Another nice app is TravelClock and I chose it for my specific need of having flexible alarm clocks. I need the same alarm on Mo/We/Fr and other one on Tu/Th. The standard alarm mechanism allows you to have up to 3 alarms only with no option to choose custom days in the week when you need the alarm. In addition to alarms TravelClock includes: world clock, moon phases, timers, stopwatch, sun rise/set, city time, time calc, internet time and whatever else you might need about time.

Next comes SMan – a kinda system tool with very good task manager, file manager, system information, autostart, network info, simple (tree) overview of todays tasks and appointments and some other stuff. Personally, I use this for task manager and autostart.

Yet another utility is FileMan which has a number of extensions like show system files/folders, show ROM devices, change attributes, many sorting options and other stuff.

QuickContact is another piece of software which I loved from the very beginning. It includes some critical features like many groups per one contact, customize which details are shown in FC and FO modes, customization of colors (including per odd/even rows), fullscreen mode in FC, faster scrolling (by half of the page or so instead of one line). Nice sorting which is easy to use with Jog is also there.

There are some other cool utilities that I put on my phone including Advanced Call Manager, Symb Zip, PowerTorch, irRemote, PowerMP3, Advanced English Dictionary and ColorPanic game which just drives me crazy, but I if I will start describing each one of them – it will take me ages to write and you – to read. I don\’t find all these tools to be as critical as ones I have already mentioned, by I thought it would be still a nice idea to list them so someone could possibly check them :)

In addition to my review of the software I would like to give a link to this amazing website with many stuff in (free registration is required). All (or at least almost all) the applications mentioned in this post can be found there.
