Ok, So How Much Are You Spending On Your Applications?
Posted by Ed Hansberry in "THOUGHT" @ 09:00 AM
In this poll, we found out most of the readers of this site have over 10 applications installed, and the bulk of those have over 20 installed! Then here you told us what you have installed that is making up for that critical functionality the Pocket PC lacks out of the box. Ok, the guy with 41 games installed, you do realize you can get work done with a Pocket PC, right? :wink: :lol:
Bars represent dollars spent. The line is how many apps purchased that year.
So just how much did you spend on applications? Very few on my list are free, so when I added it up, it was touching on $1,200 since my first third party app purchased in 1999 - bSquare Spreadsheet which made up for the lack of Pocket Excel on those early Palm-Sized PC devices. I've spent much less this year mainly because my device pretty much does everything it needs to for me and just about all updates have been free. How about you, could you have made a great down payment on a big screen TV for what you've spent on Pocket PC software? :| (Note the poll is in US dollars. Do your best to translate it. Thanks!)
