Ok then, nobody said no to this idea so I may as well start it off!

This is how it's going to work: I have now started this topic which will list sites which are related to Pocket PC Phones and are useful and good.
As you, the good people of Modaco, have a huge combined knowledge I will need you to help me out.
PLEASE post any sites that you know (or indeed run!) which you would recommend to others to use and I will update this list accordingly.

My main reason for doing this is that I'm reasonably new to this and don't know of many sites where I can get info, apps, games, ringtones, etc so you will be helping me and anyone else new who joins.

Some of these sites will cover multiple topics. I won't duplicate links, I'll just put them where they fit best.

Here we go then:

APPLICATIONS & GAMES
http://www.smesolutions.co.uk/modaco/shop.htm - The Modaco shop! Selling hardware, accessories and software
http://www.handango.com/ - massive Pocket PC Software site. 10% off for Modaco + members
http://www.phm.lu/ - Pocket PC tools inc registry editor
Lakeridge site - For those wishing to keep an eye on the progress of WisBar Andvance Phone Edition
www.dotpocket.com - Remote control app, control your PDA from your PC
http://clickgamer.com - Pocket PC games and emulators
http://pocketgear.com - Lots of apps and games
http://www.freewareppc.com - Free apps and games
http://www.pocketgamer.org - Pocket PC games and reviews
www.pocketpcmag.com - click on best sites and you get an index of sites from games to themes

SOUNDS
http://www.coolsmartphone.com/index.php - Primarily Smartphone site but has large database of sounds

THEMES
http://www.pocketpcthemes.com/index.shtml - large list of free themes

INFORMATION
http://msmobiles.com/index.php/0,0,1.html - General news, always up to date but sometimes somewhat biased
http://www.pocketpcthoughts.com - Unbiased general Pocket PC and PPC Phone Edition news
http://www.tekguru.co.uk/phpBB2/index.php - More general PPC and PPC PE news

As above PLEASE post a reply with any sites you know otherwise this topic is already dead.

Disclaimer:
This page is intended for links to sites relevant to Pocket PC Phones. I will check all sites before adding to this list but I cannot vouch for the contents of any sites linked from here.

If admin could sticky this, that might be helpful :wink:
Also, if anyone has any advice on catergories or anything that could make this easier to read, I'm all ears.

Thanks all!

1st update done! Thanks Mr_Man!

All links ok except the Lakeridge one. The forum didn't open but I left it in as the main site didn't open either. Guess it's down at the moment...

Keep em coming people!

Hi Chaps,

Great idea for a thread. Recently got my M2000 and now that I've worked out how to work everything on it, I'm on to downloading software and games.

Just downloaded a Commodore 64 emulator from clickgamer.com. Means I can play some of the old games I played as a kid. Fantastic! Downloaded the games themselves direct to my M2000 from c64.com - Manic Miner, Jet Set Willy and Bruce Lee. If you're interested in Sega or Nintendo games, then try morphgear.com.

pocketgear.com seems to have loads of stuff.

There's also freewareppc.com though I don't know if it's any good, and of course the Modaco Software Games and Applications forums with other suggestions.

Finally, on the main Modaco site, there are a number of forums specifically for third party software. Not sure which of these are also applicable though to pocket PCs.
