As someone who has more than 1G of freewares installed his Treo device, I often ask myself: which ones would I reinstall in case of a hard reset (god forbid).

In other words, what are the 10 freewares every windows mobile device must have?

The list is far from being final yet and will be modified weekly. The conditions are:

1. Absolutely free (no sharewares)

2. Provides a functionality needed by most users

3. User friendly and easy to use.

Let’s begin and see how many freewares we will end up with (the goal is 10).

1. DevState

Shortcuts, Tasks and Battery state ’today’ plug-in.

If you are new with Windows Mobile, you probably find it hard to switch between applications.

If you are an experienced WM user, you have probably already downloaded few tasks managers and shortcuts plug-ins.

DevState (Device Status) is probably my favorite WM tool. Read More...

2. TCPMP

Probably the best media player that comes for free.

If you are interested in seeing movies on your WM device—this is the perfect solution.

The Core Pocket Media Player is an open-source media player for Windows CE / Windows Mobile-based devices.

TCPMP is one of the first things I would put on my WM. Read More...

3. SpoonAlarm

Not just because it’s a SpoonTool.

The SpoonAlarm is a simple and useful alarm application, combining a friendly interface with a loud mp3 based alarm capabilities.

Easy to use, quickly configured, solves a serious lack in Windows Mobile.
