WhoNeedsAnIphone becomes FreeStyl: Windows Mobile program launcher

FreeStylWhen we told you about GoodWin, an iPhone-like program launcher for Windows Mobile, we included a link to a similar app that we'd discovered this summer. While the $20 GoodWin is pretty, it's also a bit clunky and difficult to use. The other application, on the other hand was elegant and free. The only problem is that last time we checked, it was in Alpha, meaning it was still pretty buggy. It also kept changing its name.

Now that other program has reached public beta, and is reportedly pretty stable. Oh yeah, and it has another name. The program formerly known as WhoNeedsAniPhone and FUILauncher, is now called FreeStyl.

There's still a pretty hefty list of requirements:
FreeStyl includes a program launcher, a screen locking application, and a redesigned contacts application. Developer Jason Jaegers is also working on a weather program and a music player that will also be finger-friendly. You can also choose from several different wallpapers.
