Make Your Motorola Q Look Like A Mac
If you are a Mac user and want your Motorola Q to look like a Mac powered device instead of the Windows Mobile that it is, check out the home screens designed by Ray at KoolDezine.com. He has several Mac ones to choose from. In addition to the Mac one he has a fairly large selection of general ones to choose from. I downloaded several of them.
The best part is that they are free, but he does ask for donations if you like them and use them, which I am going to do since I am using one his cool looking Yankees one, which is in his fairly extensive "Sports" section. And most of them also use only standard plugins so you do not need any additional software for them. They are a cinch to install, just unzip them and copy the XML and JPG file to the 'Application Data/Home' directory through ActiveSync. Once the files are copied just go into "Settings" and the "Home Screen" option. You also need the "Color Scheme" and "Background Image" to be set to "Default" so the settings in the XML file are used.
So, just how good at time waster games are you? Think you've got the stuff? Well, The World's Hardest Game 2.0 doesn't think you do.
Yes, amazingly, it's possible to have a sequel to a game called "The World's Hardest Game". It doesn't seem logically possible, since if the first one was actually the world's hardest, how could another one come along and share the moniker? It made me doubt the name in the first place.

You can just unzip the file, and then follow the directions in the text file that was extracted. The post mentions what the step in the text file are. All you need to do is open ActiveSync and browse to the device Using the "Explore" button in ActiveSync. Then you navigate to the Application DataHome directory, and drop the XML and JPG file into it and then go into the settings screens on the Q and select that Home Screen.

Sweet, can't wait to try this out! Now if only Mac would come out with their iPhone, all this would become unneccessary:)
