Software, GPS
TouchFLO was worth a separate chapter, so now I’ll be talking about other pre-installed software. On one hand we have a full Office that can be used for editing documents, there is a PDF reader and WinZip too. I’ll talk about other applications at the multimedia and data transfer parts as they are related.
Touch Pro is great in games, however. Bubble Breaker and Solitaire don’t have to be described, but besides there are three other games developed by PDAMill (this is a Hungarian company, related to Nav N Go, we could say that they originate from there). The one called The Corsair is a simple one, we have to shoot the pirates that appear by tapping the screen with our finger in the appropriate place, the thing that makes it a bit harder is that we have to reload frequently (two-hand playing recommended), sometimes all kinds of women appear who shouldn’t be shot and there are bonus packages falling from the sky which have money or health inside.
The other PDAMill game is a board game, it has chess, dames and reversi. The AI is quite smart, we had great reversi battles, but as you can capture more and more corners you can win easily. There is a bowling game too, which is also finger-controlled, I wasn’t the most successful, to tell the least.
The own game of Touch Pro is Teeter. This has been on Diamond too, it is controlled with the motion sensor and we have to reach a green hole with a ball, whilst avoiding the black holes. It’s quite simple in the beginning and it gets hard from the 15. level, as the surface is not plane, but it’s made of triangles like the back of the phone.
All that I can say about the GPS receiver’s sensitivity is that the QuickGPS software can help finding satellite connection, this downloads the satellites’ coordinates from the net and so navigation software can connect faster. iGO unfortunately – no matter the expandable memory – didn’t launch, neither the officially sold one, nor the one we used in i900 (this is not even launched yet). Garmin XT can run theoretically, but the PDAMill games give us some hope: we trust that by the launch of the Hungarian Touch Pro there will be some official solution for running iGO.
