Product Category: Maintenance Software
Manufacturer: Anton Tomov
Where to Buy: MobiHand (affiliate link)
Price: $24.95USD for PM Pro. A ‘lite’ version is available for $14.95USD. A fully functioning 15-day trial is available.
System Requirements: Version reviewed was for WM5, but versions are also available for Pocket PC (Win CE3.0, ARM, SH3 & MIPS), Pocket PC 2002, 2003 and 2003SE.
Specifications: Application requires approximately 2.7Mb of memory. Benchmark folder requires approximately 250K per device. PM Pro should be installed to Program (internal) memory, since it requires exclusive access to storage cards for a number of its functions.

Pros:

Fast analysis and correction of card and memory mgmt problems;

Large variety of benchmark data for cards available;

If PMPro won’t fix it, it probably can’t be fixed!

Cons:

CE databases not working on WM5 (yet!);

No pause button for long scans/benchmark tests;

Unload apps may show it completed successfully, even though it couldn’t find the unload.exe file;

Can be slow to start up.

Summary:
For those looking to keep their Pocket PC in peak operating condition, Pocket Mechanic Pro represents the ultimate in toolkits available. It’s like having one of those big rolling red toolboxes for the Pocket PC!
