Cool features the HTC Touch 3D surface (of course) and the Zoom bar.

But see for you self: Specifications.

Only minor drawback: It got no G-Sensor,.. so we have to play Spin the Bottle with our fingers.

It all started with a joke on Teched EMEA 2008 in Barcelona. By the end of the evening, Rizo got so enthusiastic about it that he stayed awake and delivered the first release already in the morning.  Consequently we were able to show Spin the Bottle to the World in the very last panel discussion at the event.
When Marketplace got in place last October we decided to put it on to gain experience with the application store and certification process, so we would have experience for consulting our customers.
We know the graphics of our app could be nicer – yet we never imagined it would be so successful. The development was done more or less in spare time, on the positive side the “lean” graphics make it work also on OMAP 200 based devices like the HTC Wizard.
Windows Marketplace was a little rough around the edges when it came out! Nevertheless I have to admit it got quite mature rather fast.
During the certification process the feedback from the marketplace authority about issues in our software when failing the test where precise and always to the point. This is a clear indication that enough manpower is involved in the testing and as a result the quality of the customer experience is kept high. As a consumer I like the way the application store works – nevertheless the IPhone’s software distribution has a still a little edge because it informs proactively about software updates. Because it can leverage a Push mechanism.
From my inside-the-industry  position the only thing that’s strange is that companies who don’t have their HQ in one of the Windows Mobile Marketplace markets are banned from publishing software!

Da ich in letzter Zeit mehr Anfragen bezüglich dieses  Tests bekomme, hier die Links die ich zur Recherche herangezogen habe:

ERPsen counter

Since some time now, we have a lot of fun programming CF, as you may know from “Spin the bottle” (we currently testing version 1.7, an update will come soon).
So we decided to write a new game/trainingsprogram,.. the “ERPsen Counter” (BEAN Counter, in german the BEANS are PEAS).
For all you wannabe “Bean Counters” out there, this is the perfect game for you, as well as for those of you who want to perfect your current bean counting abilities.
