CES 2006 & Microsoft

Looks like there will be a number of extremely interesting product announcements coming out of CES 2006 this week. I’ve been watching the Bill Gates keynote, and there has already been a number of details that I had been unaware of a few hours ago. Neat stuff! More details to come during the next few days.

New Version of Papyrus for MS Smartphone!

If you are a MS Smartphone user, head on over to SBSH Software and check out the latest release of their Papyrus product! This software is a full-function PIM replacement for the MS Smartphone platform. New features of Papyrus 1.2:

  • Windows Mobile 5 Support
  • QVGA (240×320) resolutions

I’ve been using SBSH products on my Pocket PC for the last 18 mos. now, and I have been extremely satisfied. SBSH has great support, and a fantastic relationship with its customers. Also check out their excellent forums where you can interact with other users of their software.

Highly recommended!

Microsoft to Buy Opera – False!

Steven Bink over at Bink.nu posted news that Opera is not being actively pursued by Microsoft or Google. This is good news from my point of view – Opera has always had a great browser, and the market needs another browsing point of view seperate from Internet Explorer and FireFox.
