I had been waiting to get a decent PDA phone that has quad band and good connectivity options like wifi, bluetooth, GPRS. I finally got one last Thursday and love it so far.
The Wizard is manufactured by HTC, a Taiwanese company and runs Windows Mobile 5.0. It is privately labeled by cingular as the cingular 8125. Here’s a good review of the device. I found a lot of good resources and tweaks on the HTC Wizard Web site. I now have the direct push email and calendar sync configured with my personal and corporate accounts. With a little overclocking, I managed to run Skype with the wifi connection. The SIP softphone (SJ phone) has been configured but I still need to try it out.
Here is the list of upgrades I did:
1. The cingular 2.25 ROM upgrade that provides the direct push support.
2. Microsoft Activesync 4.2 configured with mail2web live for direct push email.
3. Smartskey
4. TotalCommander – a better file manager with extras like the registry editor
5. Omapclock 0.2 – to overclock the CPU. I’m running mine at 240
6. Skype for pocket PC.
7. SJ Phone

I came across this cool website called del.icio.us while installing the tab mix plus extension for firefox. The concept behind it is really simple – keep, share and discover all your favorite things. It’s the discover aspect of it that intrigued me the most – you can browse popular and related items. The more people bookmark it, the more popular it gets. It helped me discover two interesting websites:
