I have got this up and running on a Compact IV. Not sure that it offers much of use so far though, as it isn't really UK Friendly.
Might be of some use to our friends across the pond though.

My compact doesn't do this. Not that I'm bothered though, I always hated the voice dialer thing.

Is your table calibrated

Couple of questions,

Digging around on ALK's site, there seems to be a couple of versions of 7. There seems to be one quoted expsecially for the HTC Diamond, then a generic Win Mob version. Anyone know if there is a difference between these tw versions, and indeed the version preinstalled on the compact iv?

Also, If i choose to activate the bundled version, do I get access to an installable version, as If I flash a new ROM later, I would still like to have the Software.

The size of the thing and the quality of the screen make all the little foibles worth while. It's been a while since I had a phone that was comfortable in a pocket, I have one again.

I think a tasks view is sadly lacking, and a calander app that is not the horrid WM one, would be nice. I've put SecondToday on mine and run PocketBreeze, so the info is once again readily at hand and presented however I choose.

As to performance, I'm not really sure what people are complaining about. I have the 'X' button configured to close rather than minimise, and performance is still pretty good, even with no tweaks or ROMs applied. Battery life is poor, but I'll live with that, knowing that I have plenty of available charge points in my life, and that if I switch the thing off it charges up quickly.

For me, best of the 3 WM phones I have owned so far.

I nearly sent my compact iv back because of this, I could use TF3D or PocketBreeze (my favourite today plugin).

But then I found SecondToday, and I can now swith between the two with two taps. Still not on the TF3D home screen where it should be, but it makes the thing useful as the Vario 2 with PointUI and PocketBreeze.

That just hits me with the same "directory not found" message....

I'm a big fan of pocketbreeze. Having easy access to calender and lists of notes and task I find essential. I've had it on my m500 for ages and once my number is Pac'd to vario 2, it will be installed on there instead.

must have been the other party.

Even land lines hang up now (unless you found an analogue connection somewhere).

I went into the orange shop last saturday and asked about an upgrade to the m3100 (for m500). I was quoted £299 for the phone.

My comeback was that the T-Mobile shop is 5 doors away, isn't there anything you can do? He replied, it's out of my hands mate. I walked 5 doors up and paid £80 and a new flex 25 contract for a vario 2. The only thing I'll miss about orange is text FILM to 241.

Mind you, when this contract is up, I bet I'm doing that shopping trip in reverse.

double tap the shift key acts as a shift lock.
