Photo Contacts Pro v5 Review
I have tested almost all the software out there to make my Windows Mobile Phone function closer to a phone. We all know that Windows Mobile Phones are great to have but they are more of a PDA than a phone. I have known several people who grab a Windows Mobile Phone for fancy and later regret because they only wanted it as a phone but it would definitely fall short of it.
I have used Pocket PCs for a decade now and I preferred to use it only for PDA functionality. But in late 2007 I decided to try out a Windows Mobile phone and bought the HTC Kaiser (TyTN II). The first thing I realized is that the phone functionality of the Windows mobile is still in it's infancy. Especially I have got addicted to the timed profiles, customized rings & fast dialling (dialling a contact with just one press of a button) in Nokia and the ease of accessing the contacts and answering calls. But now I had to deal with the complete absence of profiles and the tiny buttons for contacts and answering calls. I started trying all the applications in the market and finally settled on Photo Contacts Pro.
With Photo Contacts Pro now my Windows Mobile performs better than a Nokia phone for the following reasons.

Visit to Sydney during the Easter weekend
The Christian believers at Sydney had organized a Church Gathering (called the Holy Convocation) during the Easter weekend. That gave us an opportunity to visit Sydney for the first time.
We decided to drive to Sydney (900 Kms from Melbourne) since that would enable us to be flexible in our plans as well give us mobility in Sydney. Our original plan was to break journey at Wodonga where Chrish's brother resides. Wodonga is about 350 Kms from Melbourne and on the way to Sydney. However due to the last minute change of plans we ended up driving all the way to Sydney in one stretch.

Freezing temperatures in Melbourne
Winter in Melbourne (and sometimes even the summer) is quite cold in Melbourne but the temperature never touches the freezing point. Actually it it the cold breeze that makes you chill rather than the actual cold itself.
However this morning the temperatures touched zero degrees in most parts of Melbourne including our suburb. This happened around 6.30 in the morning. When I got out of the house to take the car I realized that the car was covered with a layer of ice. I couldn't remove it with my fingers but thank God when we poured water, the ice layer disappeared. I should have taken a photo of this uncommon happening but I did not. Maybe the next time.

After a 6 months hiatus!
Well it's six months since I last posted and so many changes in the meantime. I had to bring down this blog quite unannounced because of the changes to the hosting. Also a new country, a new job and a new house meant no time to get the blog set up at the new hosting. Anyways now the blog is up again and I should be adding a lot of posts and photos to the blog in the coming days. So please stay tuned to ronney.net.

Arrived in Australia
We arrived in Australia on 6th August 2008. We enjoyed a pleasant journey and arrived at the Melbourne airport at 8.30 pm. By God's grace we didn't have any problems with the quarantine department and our luggage was never opened. Chrish's sister Aasha and her family and Chrish's brother Bertie were all present at the airport to receive us. More...

Our First Car Sold!
On June 25th, I had an advertisement posted on an automobile sale website to sell my car. Immediately after that advertisement went online I started getting calls from interested parties. That evening the scene near my office was like an auction place and finally I sold the car to a respectable family. More...
