So I've just upgraded my MDA Vario II to Windows Mobile 6...

Does anyone know some good software I should get for it?

I'm looking for good freeware or maybe some paid applications for it that are really useful.

Thanks in advance :) + Rep to all that help.

I have mine loaded with:

Opera Mobile Browser
Putty for Mobile
MS Office Mobile

I also have WHMCS Mobile for my WHMCS so that I can pretty much run my entire business from my phone ;)

No Problem! I completely reskinned both my WHMCS Admin and Mobile Admin panels to suit my needs. They are so easy to customize that I just redesigned the layout a bit to better suit my phone (Moto Q9c).

Putty for mobile is VERY handy when you need to run simple SSH commands.

All of our servers also have remote reboots and the web interface to reboot each server is very easily navigable on my mobile. This makes it extremely easy to reboot a server if a customer requests it.

Ah! I am in love with WinMo so here are the list of programs that I install everytime I buy a new device/hard reset/reflash ROM

-wkTask - Basically a task manager, taskbar, battery gauge for your phone. A must have and FREE

-Monopoly - The best PPC game outside of Kevtris. Its not free, its like $15.00 USD, but in my opinion, well worth it. Then again, you can always find it for less if you look around ;)

-Sean O-Conners Pocket Games - Risk, Stratego, and his own game. They have very playable free demos. All 3 are $30, but for casual play, the demos work.

-Dashwire -Sign up for the beta and hope for an invite. Wireless sync of pictures, videos, contacts, texts, etc. Love it. Then again, if I get an invite and you are interested, let me know.

-HTC Home Plugin with HTC Home Customizer - FREE - Perfect for a home screen.

-PIE Plus 2.2 - A lot of people use other browsers, but I am partial to Pocket IE honestly. With PIE Plus, you get drag scrolling and a lot of great features like tabbed browsing. I think its about 15 to purchase.

-Microsoft Live Search - This probably came with your device, but if not, check it out. Best GPS/Mapping sw. Better than Google Maps mobile IMO.

-Palrino - BEST free IM client - Nuff said.

-Weather Watcher - FREE - Easy way to check the weather.

Those are my picks. You should really check out http://www.ppcgeeks.com I frequent over there (Under name Matt) and there is so much sw recommendations and information. Windows Mobile is truely the most powerful mobile sw just very under utilized without the right knowledge and software.
