windows mobile apps

[Harold_Timmis]

Well I tried asking for Ideas on Facebook this did not work out too well... so I was wondering if any of you guys have any ideas for windows mobile apps? I tested my mobile module by implementing LabGnome the Digital Metronome and it works great but I lack more ideas for Windows mobile apps, so if anyone has any suggestions...

and I included LabGnome for anyone with a windows mobile 2005 and up phone

In an old version of the PDA toolkit (I think it may have even been 7.0), I once tried implementing a remote control VI, which basically grabbed an image of the FP, sent it to the PDA and then sent the clicks back. This was tricky since there was no Mouse Down event and the performance was marginal, at best.

Another thing you can try is a two-player game. I built a 2 player tic-tac-toe once where each player played on a separate platform. One of the available platforms was a PDA, so you could have one player on the PDA and the other on a 15" touch screen.

Of course, you can also do other simple games.

You can buy an external bluetooth GPS(costs around 20 $) and implement NMEA parsing and plot your trips in a Graph where foreground of your graph is the JPEG image of your route...Challenge would be to run this code continuousness in your mobile without memory getting exhausted...You may even send your moving GPS cordinates to another mobile using LabVIEW SMS server...

You will find details of a mobile device app I created using Labview in this thread http://forums.ni.com/ni/board/message?board.id=170&message.id=227224#M227224 it involved GPS via Bluetooth and didn't crash the PDA I was using at the time (HTC Blue Angel PDA based phone), the second version also logged lat/ long, speed & UTC for post processing - Mike

I used HTC 3350(Love). The OS was WM 6.0. Seems like you had WM 2003...May be old is gold...;)..I don't suspect the code as even an example string processing was building memory over time and crashed the mobile in 4-5 hours continuous run...I have 48 MB program Memory..
