Is there any way to port the Windows 7 Facebook app to the HTC HD2, it is completely different and runs a lot smoother then the current Facebook App for Windows 6.5
Not really, no. It's like asking for an android or iphone app to be on windows mobile 6.5. It's completely different now. But I understand, it would be nice to have the same functionality the WP7 facebook has as it was made so recent as opposed to the older 6.5 version with a few things missing here and there, like a full view of who said what.

We’ve all been hearing rumors about Windows Mobile 7. You’ve probably seen the leaked screenshots, and I go over some of them here. We don’t really know if those represent the Standard/Smartphone version or the Professional/Pocket PC version of the operating system, or if there are even going to be multiple versions of Windows Mobile 7. Most of the screen shots indicate a move towards the Windows Mobile Standard style interface. You can even see that one of these mockups for a home screen has already made it into Windows Mobile 6.1 Standard Edition.
So now that we’ve seen Windows Mobile 6.1, what kind of features are on your wish list for Windows Mobile 7? What do you really want to see?

Is it possible for somebody to make a notification system just like that for either windows mobile 6.1 or 6.5. i love that system, thats the only thing i like on android. It makes it so easy to check iM's ,text messages, and email.

that'd be amazing, even for 6.1!!!
thats a pretty good idea.
man only if i can do it.... any developers out there is it even possible. if it is ill try to do it my self....
Any updates on this?
don't think so...but HTC has something that comes close.
consider flashing a rom with manila 2.1 on either winmo 6.1 or 6.5 (some of the 6.5 roms are great and stable. check out energy's roms. they're fast and stable)
Ok. I have been a Windows Mobile user since the original Cassiopeia (1998). I currently have the fuze and my wife has an iPhone. The iphone has a lot of cool apps that I would like to see on the Windows Mobile platform. However, i cannot find anything that come even close. I don't know if I am not looking well enough.
Some Apps:
Sportacular, iSports, MLB at bat on iPhone - For windows mobile we have GetSportz which is pretty rudimentary.
eBay on iphone - all we have for Windows mobile is the formatted web page?
iFareFinder, Flight tracker on iPhone - ? Windows mobile.
I am not an iPhone fanboy. I need Windows mobile, but where are all the cool apps?
I go to Fuze Mobility. they have cool links there
Looky here...

Greetings All,
I am a newbie to any sort of forum and I wish to express my thanks in advance for your help.
I have been a WM (HTC Tilt WM 6.1) user for 4 years. Just recently I have been having issues with my phone and I need to purchase a new phone, but I totally confused on what to purchase.
My Tilt has the following programs installed, that I use on a daily basis:
Voice Command, Note2Self, SPB Wallet, SK Tools, Skype, Handy Shopper, in addition to the WM Office suite.
These are the programs that work well for me and I am comfortable with.
My question is this>
Can a widows 7 Phone do all the above or do I find a used WM 6.1 or 6.5 phone…will I like WM 6.5 better?
Or dare I say it…an Android?
Since your a windows mobile user and I'm guessing your most familiar with that os I suggest the touch pro 2 or the HD2. The touch pro 2 because it's a user friendly device, nice sized keyboard and purely reliable. The hd2 is also a nice pick it has a 4.3in screen an extremely fast processor and the touch is pretty sensitive/similar to the iPhone. You can go to htc.com to check the specs and see what you like best.
These are both 6.5 wm capable phones and the HD2 can flash wp7. I personally like winmo over android because of office suite but android is not bad either.
thanks for the info...what does "flash wp7" mean?
The HD2 has a very active dev community and one of the things they have accomplished is to port other operating systems to the device. So you have a choice now between keeping it on the stock WM6.5, or 'flashing' an alternative OS like WP7 or Android.
If you bought one yourself you would have the added bonus of being able to use the apps that you are familiar with.
Thanks for your thoughts.
What about the new HTC Inspire...any thoughts?
Ok. Let me say that I am a windows man. Current phone = HTC TP2. I want to uupgrade 6.5.x onto a WM7 hardware platform but no joy. Damn Metro UI thingies.
Now, I am finding myself looking at the android-based phones and still want the same funcitonality that I enjoy with windows mobile...ie.. complete office suite sync without buying 3rd party apps or going through Google. Microsoft Money/Quicken sync. Luckily I find that most major apps I use have android options.
Is there a migration guide?
thx
