Thanks for this. I've downloaded it and it seems to work well.

It looks like xda-developers have loads of apps and stuff for the HD, so i'll keep and eye on that forum.

I'm looking for some decent games to keep me amused on the train. Anyone tried Need for Speed Underground or Call of Duty 2 on the HD?

Any good?

[nitelife]

Need for speed isn't too bad, haven't tried COD though.

Game #018 - XTrakt - MyLostBlog

this game is the best I've seen for free, taken from the sony ericsson x1.

some others and apps on this website. Its in Italian but just click the falg to the right to translate

I can recommend:

Chargeable:
Microsoft Voice Command. Very good app. Allows you to voice control your phone. Also can read out txt messages to me while I'm driving (via bluetooth car kit).

AE button plus - add short cuts to the hardware buttons. very handy and only $7.50

Resco audio recorder - very good recording app.

Free:
Tiny Twitter - nice twitter app

Live search - good to find restaurants, cinemas, etc if you're away from home

Microsoft reader - nice ebook reader. works well if using AE Button plus.

TCMP media player - handles most formats.

My old SE K800i used to have this feature and it was really useful. It means you don't have to press the power button to wake it up whenever you want to see if anything has happened.

Hi,

you could try S2U2

http://s2u2.ac-s2.com/

Not sure if it does exactly what you want but perhaps some of it.

I did have it for a while but it really does drain the battery, (or at least I found it did) sometimes I had warning battery by 1700. I would unplug the charger at 0800 so not very long!

Tried it and it's not that great. Will happily let you download software not suitable for the HTC Touch HD.

Shame as the concept was good.

Anyone know of a good app to download podcasts?
