Exciting news! My friend and longtime colleague Steve Doss and I have been working 12-14 hours a day, 7 days a week non-stop (except Thanksgiving Day) to build what we think is a pretty remarkable (in many ways) new mobile app – SeeqPod Mobile for Windows Mobile.
We wanted to get the word out that we're giving away free downloads of the app starting today (we'll start selling it for $(removed) on Monday, which is still about half of what most Windows Mobile apps cost, and this one is way cooler).
Steve and I have been collaborators for several years. I did all of the design and user experience architecture, putting everything I know about making a great product cool and easy to use. Steve's been a successful mobile app designer (he's an artist, musician, programmer, and all-around genius renaissance guy). He figured out how to do lots of things that other apps don't do on the Windows Mobile platform.
You can read a bit about the app and it's features at our mobile page, and here are some groovy screenshots.
We've built in a range of interchangeable color themes and skins, including a Steampunk skin (in honor of Boing Boing fans everywhere). The architecture allows customizability, so eventually we will have many skins available and people will be able to add to a growing collection of skins.
We also support both QVGA (320×240) and VGA (640×480) displays, which will be cool for people with the newest generation of Windows Mobile phones.
