Spb Mobile Shell 3.0

image

The Windows Mobile Start menu is familiar and powerful for launching programs but sometimes it can be just a little inconvenient to use the pointer to navigate those intricate menus…

What I need is an icon screen like the iPhone…

Have you tried Spb Mobile Shell 3.0? There are mixed opinions about this add-on in the Internet forums but despite certain shortcomings I am finding it really useful for taming my X1 Xperia and allowing me to make one handed phone calls.

Be warned though that a drawback for Spb Mobile Shell 3.0 is that creating your optimum personalised setup takes a lot of tedious configuration.

Here is how my Spb Mobile Shell 3.0 is configured on my SE X1 Xperia.

My preferred theme is Black.

Spb Mobile Shell 3.0 is a very pretty program with very nice graphics and animations which perform well on the SE X1 Xperia.

The Spb Change Profile is much better than the Win Mobile default.

The Contacts Icon is the fastest way to one handily select your most often used contacts.
