[teaser]SKTools, the ultimate must have tweaker for Pocket PC, has been updated to version 3!

SKTools, full details of which can be found here, provides a whole bunch of essential tools for your device. I first discovered the application when I was looking for a way to uninstall apps that Windows Mobile 5 refused to - SKTools' enhanced uninstall function is perfect for this!

One of the biggest additions to SKTools is a Backup function, that i'm yet to try, but will do shortly! I've posted the full v3.0 update details and a couple of screenshots below.

Oh, and I forgot to mention the best thing about SKTools... it's only $9, and having purchased a previous version, I get v3.0 free too! :D

[Edit: SK tell me the price has increased to $12.99 with version 3, but Handango haven't updated their site yet...]
