just remembered i can take screen shots.
i am finding oprea mini the best browser up to now. it seems to be more friendly with wiki.
Yeah, Opera Mini is amazing, has been the best mobile browser for many years. I remember before the Windows Mobile version was released, I used to run a 3rd party java loader just to use Opera Mini, because it is so much better, faster and lighter than both Opera Mobile and Internet Explorer Mobile (though in its defence, IEM does act like a desktop browser, and thus displays just about anything you throw at it).
Other vital apps for me include PuTTy, RDP, a lot of the SBP software including mobile shell and wireless monitor, Garmin sat-nav etc... And OCT on my particular phone, to increase the CPU speed from 524Mhz to 760Mhz (actually results in better power management = better battery life).
However the best thing I did to my phone in recent months, was drop back from 6.5.5 BETA all the way to 6.1 (an official ROM as well
). Considering it was the launch ROM (before HTC made all TouchPro2's Windows Mobile 6.5), it is solid as a rock (unlike their official 6.5 ROM which increasingly suffers from SOD syndrome over time), and the battery life is just epic.
When I was running the HTC 6.5 ROM that shipped with the phone, I was struggling for over a day, which was very surprising as my HTC Universal was getting better than that on a fooked battery! When I changed to 6.5.5 BETA (unofficial ROM, cooked by an XDA-Developers team) I was getting around 1.5 - 2 days battery life. But since dropping back to 6.1, im getting well over 2 days with normal usage, and upto 2 days with heavy usage. I've just hit the 72 hour mark, though it has been (annoyingly) bleeping every few minutes to tell me to charge it quick! It seems to be doing better in 3G mode than 2G mode on the newROM, whereas it was the other way round on the 6.5 ROM's. And that is with 5 POP email accounts checking and downloading the full messages (can't be doing with headers lol) every 3 minutes.
Amazing!! Who says battery life on smartphones has to be crap? Now when I was running Android on it (admittadly Froyo - Gingerbread is supposedly better), it used to die in under 18 hours, probably around 12 hours - and that was without the email syncing all the time!
Yep, battery life is important to me, it may be sad lol, but the last thing I need is my phone conking out when im SSH'ing etc... Also, I like not having to worry about charging my phone; the missus's Palm Pre is just hilarious, one hell of a phone granted, but thank god for the wireless charger, as it has to be on charge 50% of the day haha!
And since were doing screenies heh... I have cleartype turned off to ensure high performance (I only have a lil ARM CPU running at a lowly 760Mhz so every little helps, not like you guys with dual-core CPU's and Snapdragons lol), hence the alias around the fonts - dont notice it on the phone screen lol.
