Review: Winterface

For roughly the past year, there has been a raging debate between iPhone users and Windows Mobile users about which platform is better.  In my opinion, there are pros and cons of both, however, I have been extremely interested in watching the debate rage ever forward.  The most fascinating offshoot to me is the way in which the mere presence of the iPhone has forced Windows Mobile and Windows Mobile developers to make drastic changes and improvements, almost overnight.  I am convinced that without the iPhone, there would be no HTC Touch Pro, and the upcoming release of Windows Mobile 7 would be significantly different.

Similarly, without the iPhone, it is highly unlikely that the growing mobile shell genre would have taken off the way it did.  Programs like Spb Mobile Shell, PointUI, and others, now completely replace the outdated and outmoded Today Screen interface with a finger-friendly interface which completely takes over your device, giving you access to all of your necessary applications and information.  The latest offering in this rapidly rowing genre comes from Vito Technology’s iWindows Mobile line.  Vito has done an amazing job of implementing the lessons of the iPhone with the other products in the iWindows Mobile line.

One of the things I like is that iWindows Mobile does not try to turn your Windows Mobile device into an iPhone.  Instead, it takes the best features of the iPhone and employes them in crafting slim, sleek, easy to use, and finger friendly programs.  Not only does their latest offering, Winterface, fit into this concept, it may just be the best one to come out of the iWindows Mobile studios to date.  Hit the jump for a closer look at how Winterface will revolutionize your Windows Mobile interface.
