BitBank PQV 3.0 Reviewed by PDAJunkie.net

"Happy iPAQ users already have an Image Viewer. However, it is, for a lack of better word, pathetic. If you try feeding it more than a few large JPEGs, it'll commit suicide and you'll end up soft resetting your device. I know; I tried it. Even displaying a single image (for instance, from File Explorer) takes an astounding ammount of time. Rather useless. In the words of Douglas Adams, PQV is almost, but not quite, completely different. It displays thumbnails of the pictures in selected folder, and does so quickly, too. Displaying a picture taken with a 2 MP digicam (slightly less than 1 meg in size) takes a couple of seconds (3 or 4, to be more specific), which is an excellent result. That's from a SD card, mind you. So results will only be better if you load images from a CF card (which is faster) or main memory (faster still)."
