SetSIP - Changing SIP (software keyboard) type is both cumbersome (that small finger unfriendly arrow near the SIP icon) and slow (the selection menu does not pop up for a noticeable time). Worse on Topaz (Diamond 2) the menu has 2 levels: one for selecting between Touch Input full QWERTY and Phone Keypad and one for selecting other SIP types. SetSIP allows to change the SIP, including the two Touch Input layouts from a shortcut.
SetSIP was developed for HTC Topaz (Diamond 2) with WM6.1 and requires Compact Framework 2 or above. It should work on many other phones but the test is up to you. Touch Input layouts selection make sense only on phones with Touch Input / EzInput.

ZAP! ZAP! - The long awaited fix for the Pocket PC is finally here! One of the most frustrating features of the Pocket PC is that tapping on the close button (upper right-hand corner) doesn't actually close the current program -- it just minimizes it, sending it to the background where it's still running, still taking up memory, and slowing down your Pocket PC

URL2Opera URL2Opera - As strange it might be OperaL.exe does not accept a .url file as command line parameter. Therefore, it is not possible to simply associate .url files to Opera and open them with it.
URL2Opera is a small application that extracts the URL from the .url file and passes it to Opera. This way the association became possible.
