WinMobile Torrent 2.1 for Pocket PCs released
Yes, you read that headline right--WinMobile Torrent is a BitTorrent client for Pocket PCs. I've been an avid Pocket PC user for literally years, and I can honestly say I've never considered using one for downloading torrent files. To be fair, though, these days with the huge memory cards we can add to our Pocket PCs and modern battery life, it's really not that strange of an idea. Since Barb Dybwad first mentioned WinMobile Torrent here on Download Squad back in July of 2005, they've definitely been around for awhile. So it seems people with more imagination than me have been doing the deed - that is, downloading using their Pocket PCs.So what's new in the new 2.1 release?
- Multiple trackers
- Selective download
- Speed setup guide (something all bittorrent clients appear to need)
- Ability to create a torrent from the mobile device
- Single-handed operation
