Photoshop.com on Windows Mobile devices

Leonard Goh | Sep 01, 2008

With the recent renaming of Adobe's online gallery and image-editing service from Photoshop Express to Photoshop.com, the company has also announced the beta version of Photoshop.com Mobile, an application designed to run on Windows Mobile handsets.

Oddly, the mobile version doesn't support image editing as we had expected, but it does help to organize pictures taken with your camera-phone and supports grid viewing, which is similar to what you get on digital cameras.

The online storage space has been bumped up from 2GB to 5GB and you'll have to register for it (don't worry, it's free). After registration, fire up the application on your phone, enter the login details and you'll have access to your online gallery, Adobe style. From there, you can retrieve or upload images to your account.

It may be some time before Photoshop-like image-editing tools are available on a mobile device, but at least we are getting somewhere with Photoshop.com Mobile. The software is expected to be made available later this month. Click here to see if your device is compatible.

HTC Dream spy shots

John Chan | Sep 01, 2008

HTC's first Android-powered phone, the Dream, was spotted after the company submitted it for FCC approval. Now, thanks to some spy shots posted on a Chinese-language message board, we have full-on images of a T-Mobile-branded Dream.

From the images, you'll notice that HTC has gone with a five-row keyboard, a layout it debuted on the HTC Touch Pro. The way the keys are placed is significantly different though, as they are positioned separately instead of side-by-side on the Touch Pro.

Early rumblings regarding its specifications put it in a class comparable to current high-end Windows Mobile devices with features including HSDPA connectivity, GPS for navigation and a 480 x 320-pixel display. Nothing official has been said yet, so we'll have to wait and see when this will reach the market and at what price.

Microsoft readying apps store for Windows Mobile?

Steven Musil | Sep 01, 2008

It looks as though Microsoft is joining Apple and Google in the mobile "apps store" market.

It appears the software giant expects to launch an applications store called "Skymarket" this fall for its Windows Mobile platform, if a recent job posting spotted by Long Zheng at Istartedsomething.com is accurate. According to the ad posted Sunday on Computerjob.com, the Skymarket senior product manager will head a team that will "drive the launch of a v1 marketplace service for Windows Mobile".

Among the key responsibilities, according to the ad:

Definition of the product offering, pricing, business model and policies that will make the Windows Mobile marketplace "the place to be" for developers wishing to distribute and monetize their Windows Mobile applications.
Responsibility for the business model and key elements that will drive the optimal experience for developers and monetization of the service by Microsoft.
Preparation and driving the cross group collaboration for the initial launch of the marketplace offering to the developer community this fall.
Preparation and driving the cross group collaboration with stakeholders in the commercial launch of the marketplace service with the launch of WM 7.
