I switched from Psion Revo to PPc and there is one simple feature that I miss a lot. A calculator with a virtual Paper Roll. Does anybody know of such a program for PPC, freeware if possible?

hello guys,
I have installed a naked ROM, and I would like to know a good calculator for Wm6 and a text editor with functions like Microsoft Word...
can you help me?
thanks

A good calculator is the 1_calc Lite which is free. You can search around to see if you can find the cab.
As for a good word processor, WM Word is free with WM 6.

use free42 calculator, it is skinnable and is an emulator of a hp reverse polish notation calculator. it also supports print functions and runs stored programs. it is available from sourceforge.
The best calculator
There's no doubt - the best calculator for Hermes, for any PDA, and for your PC too, is
Calc98
Link: (http://www.calculator.org/download.html)
It is the most versatile, the most complete and the most customizable calculator. It is free now.
Howgh!
Sorry to bother you all about this, but I was hoping to get everyones experienced/educated minds on what is the best contacts manager/programme out there
Currently using standard contacts which comes with Schaps WM6.1 Beta ROM, but have also tried SPB Contacts & Photo Contacts Pro. v5.08 demo
All opinions welcome, and again sorry to disturb evryone on such a trivial question
cheers
Not one response!!! Was hoping for a little bit better than that!!
It depends what you want from a Contacts program I guess but I've been impressed with the standard Contacts program when used with the Random Access CAB file. I also use the contacts section of Pocket Informant 8. They're both different and both have their own strengths and weaknesses.
You may also want to try PocketCM for a bit of iPhone-ish type contact management. It's also worth taking a look at Face Contacts (at least I think that's what it was called) which displays selected contacts on your Today screen in a similar fashion to the way iTunes Album Cover Flow style works.
I have been using iContact and CNetX Face Contacts. I find that they are good for me.
I have been using iContact is very simple and good.
cheers guys
Hello everyone
I'm a new HTC Touch HD user ( I bought it yesterday), I have been a palm user for almost 8 years!, and finally I took the step and change to windows mobile!!, principally because I need to work a lot with word, excel and emails on the go, and not always I can bring my laptop with me.
I have been reading diferent stuff about WM for around 10 hours, and it's quite diferent than the experience with palm OS, I think with Palm OS was much more easy to choose a software for each job!!
well I would like some help please:
1.- I need a good email software, which support many accounts and foulders to organice my emails just like outlook, I'm thinking in "seven" http://community.seven.com/viewforum.php?f=17
or just outlook mobile, but I would like to heard some oppinions before buy this last one.
2.- a good PDF reader, I need to read a lot of datasheets, and I need a software which can word wrap and be finger friendly. adobe reader LE coudn't do it, eather ubook, or maybe I'm doing something wrong? any idea about it?
3.- for GPS I'm thinking in buying IGO 8.3, it's a good choise?
4.- a good agenda software, and I think I will buy Pocket Informant, any coment?
well this is the most important thing for the moment, apart of this and only like a comment, I'm looking for a good clock with alarms, a good english and chinese dictionary, music player, movie player, picture view software, etc.
any help or comment will be apreciated
iGO8 its ,imho ,the best option. I have tryed TomTom but iGO beats it for far..

For music and video u can choose coreplayer ! Enjoy!
Hi stranger!!!
Hi! i-m trying to bring my experience to this panel... i-m not an expert but have know both worlds, Palm and PPC devices... i-m own today a Samsung I900 Omnia runing under WM 6.1...
in my experience here you are some tips about your questions....
1) Outlook Mobile provided is good enough... it can manage messaging (SMS) and mailing (i have 4 emmails including hotmail, gmail, yahoo and a propietary one) without any problem... is something spartan if you understand but give you a peace of mind to search and found something more sophidsticated... may be u can try Fleximail...
2) My Omnia had a PDF reader File Wiewer that's good enough... i-m not shure is a standard in WM 6... try Pocket Adobe or Mobile Foxit intead....
3) GPS depends where are you use it!!! because of maps IGO is a good one if you use it in Usa or EUROPE... i-m in Argentina, South America, here Garmin XT rules because detailed maps that it works...
4) I have Pocket Informant and it's superb!!! another good one is Iambic Agendus Pro... i-m not shure rank of prices... both are excellent....
+ clock with alarms: SPB TIME or Ptravel Alarm
+english and chinese dictionary: True Term
+music player: sorry i like WMedia...
+movie player: again WM
picture view software: Pocket XNView or Resco
all topics are just an opinion, hopefully that give you some easy guideline and my english isn't zulu 4 u (MY TONGUE IS SPANISH) c u HERE OR @ WEB...
hugs from Argentina
Jorge
thanks tossero
I think I will check the maps of IGO and if they have good ones for Asia I will buy it
thanks jorgec333
mm, thanks for your advices, I didn't know Fleximail, I will check, about the agenda, yes I used to use agendus, its really good, but I didn't know was good for WM too.
BTW touch HDD came with adobe reader LE, which is really bad in my opinion, I will check the ones you recommended me!!
Hello there I am a total newbie in this whole ROM flashing business but would like to learn. After reading some posts with tutorials I'm still scared because there are no clear instructions on how to remove some annoying wm apps, namely Mobile Office, Internet Explorer, Media Player and Manila (its not annoying at all, but I have a very nice skin in Wisbar Advance that I like more, iphonish, don't flame me or ignore me now lol).
My ideal ROM would be finger friendly and fast
Remove:
Manila
Mobile Office
Notes
Calculator
Solitaire
Internet Explorer - is remove possible???
Media Player - is remove possible???
Windows Live Messenger - is remove possible???
Pictures & Videos - is remove possible???
All unnecessary sounds and pictures, leave only rudimentary ones so there is more space for later
Include:
Tweaks to make wm more finger friendly (wider scrollbars etc.), responsive and faster
HTC Album
HTC Camera
HTC Start with bigger items
HTC Task manager
HTC Calculator from Diamond 2
HTC Dialer with slide to answer and keypad block
HTC Sensor SDK for screen rotation (but only if stable)
YouTube app
FM Radio
Latest Opera with flash
Latest Acrobat Reader
Java
MP3 Trimmer
BubbleBreaker
Teeter
Wisbar Advance Desktop 2.1 (it can be added later as a cab together with skin)
Optional software on Internal Storage:
(This of course can be according anyone's wishes but I prefer the following software)
Resco Explorer with Registry Editor
Virtual Spaghetti Notepad 2
Google Maps
GPS Cycle Computer
Mobipocket Reader
CorePlayer
SoftMaker Office
Sprint Backup
Skype
Worldcard Mobile
Spb Walet
Resco Sudoku Touch
Can anybody shed some more detailed light on how to remove Manila, Office and the rest of the stuff if possible? Or maybe a pointer to a custom made ROM according the upper proposal, ahmmm I would not complain at all ))
Anyway please just give me some info I can work with, I really would not like to brick my phone in the process. Experienced advice wanted
To learn how to cook a ROM, this will help.
Alternatively, I have a "Request a ROM" service here.
Thx for the reply and for the effort you are putting to us thickheads that cannot learn the basics so easily
I am basically interested in a 'half clean' ROM lol, some things removed, some not as you can see from my post above.
I see that in the ROMs usually the IE and Media Player don't get removed, is it because they cannot be removed or just nobody did it until now (hard to believe...)
Anyway, I'd be happy to donate for a custom ROM if you are interested?
I have a very serious reguest to ask of all the good programmers and chefs on XDA site.
I am what you would call a power user of my Hermes aswell as my PC and am always looking for the best and easy to use apps for my PDA. One of the apps I would love to use more is my windows mobile office package but due to the lack of integraty between PC office and PDA office I refrain from using my PDA office. Examples is the lack of formulas in PDA office in compareson to PC office. I have searched the web for better office Apps but the cost a fortune, Example is SoftMakers Office... approx 66 Pounds.
Is there anyone who could help me and other Office users by programming a more transparent office for PDA?
And does anyone know if there are programs like GNU Octave that can be run on PPC since I am an engineering student and would love to have these tools in my pocket.
Any help in to this respect would be greatly appreciated.
P.S. I would like to thank all the people whoe have allready made my PDA experience enjoyable, My favourate roms : CRC, TNT(although it has been discontinued, Josh Manila ect... Thank you all very much
Matlab
Well I dunno about Office or Octave but there's a great "Matlab Clone" for the PPC called LME for Pocket PC, just Google it, there's no miss. I love Matlab and this great program works just as well, it has most of the functions you need when help is needed. Hope it helps!

Thanx alot, I will do so. Just for interest sake. Google Smath Studio. It is a graphing calc 2D and 3D, and you can do some programing on it, but only "if, while for " commands.
I agree that pocket office is incomplete. I wish pocket excell would do all the formulas just like the desktop version. I got spoiled using a palm pilot for years, it did all the formulas.
This request, though, might be better heard in the dev/hacking forum.
