As an alternative to spb phone suite, check out PhoneAlarm http://www.pocketmax.net/phoneAlarm.html . There is a lite version that may have take up less memory with the same functionality, plus there are some neat skins to customize it.

Try there...
My must haves:
PIM setup:
---------
SPB Pocket Plus w/ SPB Pocket Diary on the Today screen. I like the big launch icons right up front, just like the good old Palm (or iPhone, natch), but having all my PIM stuff just a tab away, with pop up windows to boot.

AgendaOne (my fave of the 3rd party PIM replacements) http://www.developerone.com
Resco Viewer (best pic viewer IMHO and worth the money)
http://www.resco.net
Freeware:
Slide2Unlock (was a long time MortSaver fan, but like the info available on S2U better)
TCPMP (haven't tried commercial CorePlayer, because there's no demo)

Most of the other additions are included in Faria's ROMs, so it's always a good idea to see what he's packed in there.
PS: just swapped from NBD 7.4 to Faria's Real Thing. TouchFLO worked fine, but I don't think it's an interface for me.
My Apps
I personally prefer Spb PhoneSuite for the call filtering... if PhoneAlarm ever adds this I might just have to re examine.... but for now, Phone Suite has my vote....

Check this out, particularly the SPB Plus program (alternative to the O2 Beta Plus)
http://www.spbsoftwarehouse.com/products/?en
SPB products especialy SPB Pocket Plus is a very well known program to most people that use this forum.
So you know now
Running WM5 now on a Himalya. Previously used omegaone battery pack 2004 on WM2003 which was ideal but seems cause the PDA to hang with WM5. Any other good programs that are recommended?
SPB Pocket Plus is good
SPB Pocket Plus is good see http://www.spbsoftwarehouse.com/
OK All there are quite a few PIM managers with really cool today plugins ie., SPB, Pocket Informant, SBSH, and so on. Give me some opinions on what you all think are the best ones. I have been trying SPB but for instance Mobile shell is very heavy and a memory hog. Help me find a good one.
Thanks

I've been using Pocket Informant (in my opinion the best PIM software never made for mobile devices) for ages
And this week end , moving apps from the official ROM to the last fxdjacentyfxd ROM, I visited the Pocket Informant web to see if it was a new release....and I've found a note saying that they have stopped development for Windows devices (even Windows 7!!):

Pocket Informant 9 - Windows Mobile Smart Phone (no touchscreen) - AGKCD-A22CU-EQ6C5-AQWSG-S3Q8A
Journal Sync - 02-R10371866-298
Download links:

Thanks,

after that I've found a thread here:

It's a pity, and it's just another fact that proves that WM users we are a kind of "Jurassic Parc" of the mobile devices, far away from Iphones and Androids
The only good new is that you can install this app from the oficcial page for free. Test it! it's agreat program to organize your professional and leisure life (and now for free, that has been a " beau geste" from the owner, WEBis, to all the WM users for all these years toguether)
I don`t know I should be happy or I should cry.

SBSH Calendar (non-touch) never fixed for WM6.5
@Pere
Since everyone has stopped developing for WM Standard (non-touch), we are some kind of Jurassic Park, right.
I am a SBSH Calendar (Papyrus, non-touch) fan - but they never fixed the Calendar to work with WM6.5!
It's a shame but understandable.

Giving PI9 away for free is a nice way to say goodbye!
