I've been running The PDA Guy at its own domain for a few years now. It's where I shoot the breeze about those funky little devices that nerds hid in their pockets.

Today, PDAs are everywhere - restaurants, parking inspectors, boardrooms. Today, they're called smartphones and everyone's got one. I'll tell you what's hot, what's new and give you lowdown on what's coming.

SoftMaker Office 2008 for Pocket PCs update

If you're not happy with Office Mobile or are running an older Windows Mobile device that has the early, really anaemic version of Office Mobile you can take a look at the new public beta version of SoftMaker Office 2008 for Pocket PCs. It's now available as a free download and comes with several fixes and improvements, including:

The setup program now optionally installs design templates and graphical bullets to a storage card, thereby freeing internal memory.
Umlauts and accented characters can now be entered on the Palm Treo's built-in keyboard.
Opening the Zoom dialog doesn't make the software unstable anymore.
If you move Jetcet Print to a different folder, SoftMaker Office will still find it.
Slideshows in Presentations now always fit on the screen.
SoftMaker Presentations now allows you to insert sound files.
