hi, can i know what software you guys use to make the touch more "touch" friendly...

for now this is all that i can find

Spb Mobile Shell (big icons - easy to navigate and access programs, settings and files - this is better than using the start menu - i linked it with the cube (using 3rd party biotouch settings) so that i can easily access it in whatever application i'm in)

HTC PhonePad (T9 keyboard that can be easily handle one-handedly and using one's thumb)

PocketCM (contacts app with superb interface with large tabs for finger navigation and support some finger gesture)

Picsel Browser (internet browser with zooming capabilities using one finger - something like the iphone's safari)

Slide-2-Unlock (similar to iphone's unlock)

HTC Touch theme for WMPlayer


what other software is available that support some finger gestures???

software that i'm looking for:

task switcher/manager supporting gestures

- i imagine i can just swipe downwards in any apps and it will launch a task manager for me - something like alt-tab interface (not a list of apps - i want big icons) where i can i just touch the app icon that i want (i found an app name dynamo which has an expose-like effect but currently it doesn't support wm6)

application launcher using finger gesture

- since to launch the cube you use the upward gesture - maybe we can get an app that launch our chosen app with a diagonal gesture so that it wont interfere with the cube's gesture recognition

OMG!!! i just found this software Symbol Commander that allows me to do what i want (see quote)

i can do all sorts of finger gesture on the touch [cons: require a press of a button 1st] to do whatever i want :
* Start an application
* Execute a command such as copy, paste, save...
* Go to a website
* Navigate through web pages
* Insert pre-defined text
* And more!

for example i make the gesture "O" and it launch the organizer menu (from spb mobile shell)
you can get it to launch whatever menu you want
