If you are looking for PocketPC freeware then there are some things you should consider. Take a look below to see the things to think about before you go out and try all the PocketPC Freeware you can find on the Internet. Sometimes free things come with a price. Pocket PC software can usually be grouped in three types: Freeware, Shareware and Licensed software. Software that is Freeware is free and therefore you can download it and use it for no cost. Shareware is also software that you should be able to download for free, but shareware often has various limits imposed on using it, such as, a 30-day trial or a usage limit, after which the software will deactivate. Pocket PC shareware is good because you are able to test drive the software before you actually purchase it. Finally PPC licensed software is software that you will have to purchase in order to use. Sometimes free software can also be open source. Open source software is software where the developer of the software will also provide the source code. Some benefits of allowing everyone to see the source code are other developers: - Can learn from the code
- Can give feedback on the code and therefore in turn a better piece of software can be produced
You will be able to find thousands of PocketPC freeware titles on the web, but you should keep in mind that sometimes this software can come with a catch. By giving programs away at no cost a developer will think of other ways to receive revenue. This can sometimes mean hiding programs such as adware or spyware in the program. Make sure when you are about to load software on you PDA that it was downloaded from a reputable software vendor.
