It's almost time!

So what updates/patches will I need(to buy ) straight away to avoid potential sh.. I mean hassles and to improve performance?

Also can someone recomend software etc for:

1) mp3
2) DIVX/avi
2) 6310 compatible drivers/gsm/gprs stuff
3) XP compatability
4) Viewing PDF / books etc?
5) LAN / wi-fi

And which games should i get!!? I presume I'm gonna be able to play pocketquake (Mind you underworld will be the first!) immediately!!?

Sorry for asking loads but I wanna be able to do everything with this lil beaut!!

*thinks: mabe I should write an faq!!*

Thankz in advance peeps!

Snails is an extremely fun video game for the PocketPC. I also enjoy Metallion.

is nothing compared to
If you want my advice: Go with Argentum if you like strategy games, Interstellar flames for shoot-em-up types, For Scrolling shooters go to: www.jimmysoft.com for Turjah and Turjah 2 (Turjah 2 being better imho) And if you loved SimCity for PC, you'll love for the PPC. Be reminded that it will cost a bunch of dough for all this. If you are looking for good prices and good games; go to www.xengames.com (The link for Interstellar Flames) The best prices, the best games. Xengames. (Ohhh Simon! I got a slogan for ya!) And for ALL the software you could possibly want: Go
Theres my 2 cents. Enjoy.

don't forget about snails being fairly cheep. That was the first app that I purchased for the pocketpc.
