    Thank You for a Fantastic Start!

    It's been a quarter of a year since we officially launched the Connection, and we want to take a moment to say "Thank You!" to all of our registered members and guest viewers for helping us get off to a strong start.

    What do we mean by strong? How about nearly a million page views, and over 25,000 unique visitors? Impressive—and we couldn't have done it without you.

    We want to send a special shout-out to some of our most loyal and active users, whose contributions to the community have been the foundation for many truly exciting and informative discussions: Biomehanika, yrless, Dave Parker MVP, davidc, Doug Heidebrink, Adam Z Lein, Ahmed Eltawil, and Kris Gainsforth.

    Each of these members has collected well over 1,000 points for their contributions, earning them the "Advocate" badge. As a token of our appreciation for their efforts, we're awarding them all a free Windows Mobile gaming package from Magmic Games' Winplay. This includes up to 16 great games for you to enjoy on your Windows Mobile device. Thank you, Advocates! (You'll be receiving a private message with information about how to download your games.)

    Thanks again to everyone for your participation in the Connection community. And to those of you who haven't yet registered, what are you waiting for? Just click the Join link at the top of the page to get started.

    Wow...this is certainly something I never saw coming my way! I appreciate every word you said Bill and I can't thank you enough for that special gaming package. I also have to thank all Windows Mobile Connection's members who helped and participated in every way possible to make this site a true success.

    Thanks.

     WOW!  I'm very impressed that you guys would take the time to get people some nice rewards, especially since I can't get any through Windows Mobile Training (provision of AT&Ts doing).

     Thanks a lot!

    Re: Thank You for a Fantastic Start!

    Back in May this year I was reading the Windows Mobile Team Blog who brought my attention this forum. I checked out the site and signed in immidiately. It was obvious from the very start that this was going to be a great place to be. With over 3500 threads in 3 months, this site is definitely the place to be if you are interested in Windows Mobile.

    Thanks Bill for the rewards. As Ahmed and Kris have already said, it is a very welcomed suprise.

    And thanks to all of the members who have contributed and made this forum the success that it is.

    Awesome! Thanks so much!  I am very much enjoying the site!  It's a very positive experience unlike other sites that seem to promote conflict in order to generate traffic.

     Thanks so much!  The site is great, and I haven't been active for a while, flat out at the moment, but I'm still subscribed to notifications and enjoy seeing all of the people getting 100+ posts.

    Re: Thank You for a Fantastic Start!

     Games are awesome, 

    But I'm wondering has anyone else thats got these tried them on a Diamond?

    They work great on other devices,  Tytn II etc.  but the diamond, they just seem to behave quite strangely!

     

    Not that I'm complaining, as I can just put them on another device. Just intereseted.

     

    Thankyou so much!
