Pocket Phojo 2.6
Posted by marlof in "SOFTWARE" @ 07:00 AM
Pocket Phojo is a great tool, that helps photo journalists caption and crop their pictures and get them from the field back to base, all by using their Pocket PC. This year at Wimbledon, it proved to be a invaluable tool, since laptops were less useful because of space constraints. A few photo agencies used Pocket Phojo, and have nothing but praise for the combination of battery life in a Pocket PC compared to a laptop, and the usability of Pocket Phojo.
And now the application is updated to version 2.6, adding quite an impressive list of features including support for Windows 2003 SE, with support for VGA and landscape orientation. An application like this, which is all about quality images, will benefit a lot from the better picture VGA sized screens will show. Pocket Phojo doesn't come cheap ($489 or $389 with a freelance rebate until Jan 1st), but if this allows you to cut back on time spent on editing and sending your pictures back to base, that price should be very well worth it.
