Microsoft Office Mobile 2007

Office MobileMicrosoft announced two Windows Mobile updates today. First, a Japanese version of Windows Mobile 6 will be available starting in June on devices from HTC, Sharp, and Toshiba.

The bigger news is that Office Mobile 2007 will be available as a free download in the third quarter of this year.

It doesn't sound like there will be a ton of new features in the updated version of Office Mobile. But it will have one killer app: support for Office 2007 documents. You'll be able to open Office 2007 file formats like .pptx .docx and .xlsx.

Office Mobile 2007 will work with Windows Mobile 5.0 touchscreen devices and all Windows Mobile 6 devices. Sorry, no downloading Office Mobile 2007 for a WM5.0 Smartphone with the hopes of adding Office Mobile to a phone that didn't ship with it pre-installed.

Build the highest tower with 99 Bricks - Time Waster

Wrapping your mind around a simple game like 99 Bricks is harder than you might imagine. The object of the game is to build the highest possible tower using only 99 pieces. Sounds easy enough, but you're playing with Tetris pieces and distinctly non-Tetris physics. If you screw up, you don't just leave gaps that you could have used to score points, you cause your whole tower to wobble and collapse.

Pieces also don't lock to a grid in 99 Bricks, the way they do in Tetris. You can wind up with pieces slanted diagonally, and there's an edge of the board that your toppled bricks can fall off of. 99 Bricks is kind of like Jenga, in that it's almost as satisfying to watch your tower crumble as it is to play seriously. Once you get the hang of the way the pieces behave, it's an addictive little game.
