A few months ago, I made the switch from Windows Mobile Pro (Treo 750) to Windows Mobile Standard (Samsung BlackJack II). There were several reasons behind the move as well as several hesitations. One of which was the differences in home screens. I was really going to miss the WM Pro “Today” Screen. I grew accustomed to have appointments, tasks, new mail, and other points of information available at a glance.

I quickly learned about a third party plug-in for WM Standard that was very similar to the “Today” Screen. Supporting Smartphone 2003, Windows Mobile 5 and Windows Mobile 6 devices, Facade ($14.95) is a highly customizable, tab-based home screen plug-in developed by SBSH software.

At first glance the Tilt may look like just a minor upgrade to its predecessor, the 8525, but that would be a seriously wrong assumption to make. The ATT Tilt offers 3G, GPS navigation, Push To Talk, and the coolest sliding keyboard format. This is the phone that I have been envious of from afar for a long time now and was extremely excited to have the opportunity to have hands on for several weeks to write this review.

But with all the wow factors this phone offers, I still found myself wishing that for once they would get it all lined up just right to offer the best phone possible. The potential to hit a grand slam is certainly there. As a result, I fell prey to its wow'ness factor, was personally impressed with its stellar line up of features, yet was still wishing it had a little more umph.
