Review: IMDB for Windows Mobile

Finally! An IMDB app for windows mobile! I don’t know about you guys but if you’re into movies at all I am sure you’re on this site at least once a day like I am. This little Gem is a great way to access IMDB.com without opening your browser on your phone and loading the whole page.
This app downloads a lot of data so make sure you’re on WIFI or have unlimited data plan. Over 3G the performance is fine… Over WIFI it’s pretty much instant. It’s a nice light app with no unnecessary features.

Features include:
- Screen/Orientation Independent
- User Ratings/Reviews
- External Reviews
- Search Movies/TV/Video Games/Actors
- Finger-friendly interface
- DVD Covers
- Actor Headshots
- Trivia
- Quotes
- Photos
- Top 250
- Coming Soon List
- Videos/Trailers
- Goofs
- App-To-Date Support
- TV Episode Listings
- Parental Guide Info
- Movie Certificates

Head over to XDA (see link below) and download the latest version. Although the maker of the app is reporting it starts freezing after a half and hr of use I have yet to encounter this on my HD2. The maker of the app also stated he is no longer supporting this app. You must have .NET CF 3.5 installed on your phone. The app supports VGA and WVGA phones.

Given the amount of downloaded data some form of cache could have been used.
I hate that it forces the keyboard on the screen when it starts. (I have SIP auto-deploy turned off).

Nice try but far from perfection.
