The coolest task manager you ever saw

Aspecto Software, the makers of WiFiFoFum and WiFiTunes also made a fabulous (freeware!) taskmanager called Dynamo.

Dynamo 2 is a cool, animated task manager for your PocketPC 2003 device. Say goodbye to boring text lists of running programs and instead manage your programs by sliding in images of all your running applications onto your screen. For each program on your device an image is saved and when you click the hotkey they all zoom onto your screen. Simply click the one you want and it will increase to fill the screen. Quickly seeing all the running programs is far more efficient than having to read through a text-based task list so Dynamo can make task switching a much faster, and cooler, experience.


One thing good to know about setting options (that I found confusing at start) is that running the program simply invokes the taskmanage mode. So, then you get an overview of all your windows. In that mode, you can tap-and-hold to make a context menu appear. That gives you access to configuration options like key assignment and animation speed.
