AT&T Navigator has more useful features than other cell phone GPS apps, including weather and scheduled commuter traffic alerts.

AT & TAT&T Navigator is very similar to Sprint Navigation (both were created by TeleNav), but it offers more features than the other cell GPS services I tried, including a pedestrian mode, support for creating waypoints (stops along a route), instant weather reports, and traffic commute alerts.
I tested AT&T Navigator, along with Sprint Navigation and VZ Navigator, on BlackBerry Curve handsets. All of these apps and services are very accurate, and give driving directions with minimal hassle.

Note that a cell phone GPS application offers varying functions depending on your phone’s capabilities; on a regular clamshell, the app might not be as full-featured as it is on a BlackBerry. Remember too that such applications’ GPS functions rely on your cell carrier’s network, so you won’t be able to play with them if you’re headed off-road and out of range.

You can deliver an application package to a user’s Smartphone device in a number of smartphone programmingways, including ActiveSync, a web download, an e-mail attachment, Service Indication (SI) SMS (Short Messaging Service) or Service Loading (SL) SMS, or storage cards. The SMS methods for application package delivery take advantage of commonly used text messaging services to send a download URL as a text message to a user. Visual Studio 2005 does not provide a simple solution to application delivery. It is up to the developer or the mobile network operator to select which method to use. The following is a summary of these methods:

  • ActiveSync. A user’s Smartphone can be connected (docked in a cradle) to a desktop computer via a USB or serial port. Once a partnership relationship is established via the ActiveSync program, the Smartphone can synchronize e-mail, contacts, calendars, pictures, and so on with the desktop computer. Usually an application’s CAB file is further packaged using an installation setup tool such as InstallShield. To transfer the setup package of an application to the Smartphone, a user needs to run a setup program of the application on a desktop computer, which performs some compatibility checking and copies the CAB file to the Smartphone device.

Windows Mobile Programming TipsAccessibility and Ergonomic Guidelines: To create an accessible user interface, apply the following guidelines:

  • Avoid using fixed font sizes and small font sizes.
  • Enable accessibility options such as font size and idle time settings.
  • Ensure that the user interface elements are clearly visible in low light.
  • Ensure effective and easy-to-read color combinations.
  • Group related objects on the screen.
  • Ensure that the user interface is predictable. For example, pressing the HOME hardware button should always display the Home screen.
  • For Windows Mobile-based Pocket PCs, ensure that the tap region and size of the user interface element are ergonomic.
