CNetX Face Contacts

CNetX’s Face Contacts is a cool-looking contact management utility for Windows Mobile, which integrates directly into the device’s Today screen, giving you quick access to all the people you know. You may be scared of an idea to have all those faces wasting precious space of the home screen. Fear not about it – the application automatically shrinks its height to occupy as little screen estate as possible.

Key features:

  • Intuitive 3D interface with kinetic (iPhone-like) scrolling.
  • No duplication of data: all contact information is taken from Outlook Mobile.
  • Integrated “Contact Manager” that allows you to add, remove, or edit contacts without having to switch between different apps.
  • Sort by different fields (first name, last name, company, custom).
  • Instantly jump to any letter/position in the list.
  • Quick access to common communication methods (multiple phone numbers, email, messaging, contact’s web page).
  • Adjust, replace or remove contact’s pictures, with photo rotation and cropping.
  • Full control on display settings and 3D rendering options (photo shape, transparency, reflection effect).

Face Contact runs on Windows Mobile 5 and Windows Mobile 6 Classic and Professional Pocket PCs, while Windows Mobile Standard smartphones are not supported at this point. It is available for $14.95, but prior to buying you can try out the free trial version and see whether Face Contact goes in line with your needs.

The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application.
