PocketMac® for Windows Mobile 5 & 6 - All the time people ask us, "Are you guys nuts?"
What Mac user would want a Windows Mobile Pocket PC, Smartphone, or Pocket PC Phone?"
Our answer is always the same -- all of them!
Macs and Windows Mobile devices are great at the same things, but most Mac users will never know it.
Why?
Because many software companies feel they can ignore the Mac market. They have for years and they'll keep right on doing it.
They love to tell themselves that the Mac is only some small percentage of the market but what they fail to realize is that even 1% of the market is still tens of millions of users. And, these tens of millions of users are super-passionate about their computers.
What better audience could developers of new hardware and software ask for?
Yet, no Windows Mobile device will work with a Mac out-of-the-box.
Think about it - the things that Windows Mobile Devices are great at, namely
Graphics
Movies
Music/MP3s
Flash content
Games
Web browsing
Wireless networking
are the very same tasks and activities that people love to use their Macs for!
And, any serious Mac user will tell you that the handwriting recognition of the Windows Mobile Device is the first thing to even come close to what Apple's Newton could do years ago.
Add to that the fact that when compared to the Palm, which has been Mac users' only other option so far, the Windows Mobile Devices consistently rank faster and easier-to-use by far!
So, why shouldn't the two work together? We couldn't figure it out either.
This, then, is the story of one more software company that didn't ignore the Mac community and, in fact, became a Mac software company. (A true "Switch" story, indeed.)
We had been developing custom software for the Windows Mobile Device for quite a while. And, when we saw the Windows Mobile Devices that were to be released about a year ago, they excited us just as they excite you now. We were passionate about them, and we saw that other Windows Mobile Device users were passionate about their devices, too.
We realized, though, that their inability to work with Macs was a big problem and set to work trying to figure out if something could be done.
About halfway through our research, one of our engineers told us a friend had asked if there was any way he could sync his Windows Mobile Device with a Mac.
At that moment, we knew we were on to something.
Now you can synchronize your contacts, calendar, tasks, email and more between the Windows Mobile Device and Entourage/ iCal/ Address Book...
