Posted by admin in PPC News

Dash Genie is a new type of car cradle that uses a special adhesive rather than brackets to adhere both the cradle and phone to your dashboard. Available through MobileFun.co.uk for £14.99, Zippii have given the cradle a good going over and published the above video showing the device holding the rather heavy HTC HD2 rather steadily over pretty rough terrain

Pocket Sand – visually stunning game for Windows Mobile

Posted by admin in PPC News

In a rather amazing blast from the past, we have this application from 2006 called Pocket Sands, which appears to make brilliant use of the 1 Ghz processor in the HTC HD2 . The software allows one to play with particle effects on screen, drawing various shapes with sand, fire, water and vegetation, and allows these various elements to interact. The only fault with the software is the tiny icons, clearly designed more the a stylus than a finger,and the lack of accelerometer response, but the software works flawlessly nevertheless

Transparent Body Shell cures HTC HD2 kickstand envy

Posted by admin in PPC News

A kickstand is a pretty useful addition to a phone, and I am sure it is just one of the features that make HTC HD2 owners look longingly at the HTC Evo. Fortunately there is a simple solution that wont require you to spend $50 on an a bulky official extended battery and will also provide some protection. The video above by Docextreme1 (who is doing a series of HD2 tips) shows of the Body Glove Plastic Transparent Case with Kick Stand which will keep your back and sides pristine while providing some shock absorption where it to fall on a corner, and also comes with a handy kick stand that unlike others work in portrait and landscape more
