Fairfield, IA 52556 - October 17, 2006   The winners and finalists of the 2006 Sixth Annual Best Software Awards conducted by Smartphone & Pocket PC magazine have been announced at www.pocketpcmag.com/awards. Ninety members of the Smartphone & Pocket PC magazine Board of Experts judged 675 Windows Mobile products in 114 Pocket PC and Smartphone categories to determine finalists and winners.

Smartphone & Pocket PC magazine publisher, Hal Goldstein, said that "The annual Smartphone & Pocket PC magazine Best Software Awards helps users select software that best suits their Windows Mobile Pocket PC and Smartphone needs by honoring companies that produce outstanding software. The awards process is a huge 6-month undertaking involving the experts of the Windows Mobile community and over 3000 Pocket PC and Smartphone products."

Smartphone & Pocket PC magazine’s New Products Editor, Diane Dumas, and the Board of Expert judges spent two months selecting 675 award nominees, about 20% of the software in the Smartphone & Pocket PC magazine Encyclopedia of Software and Accessories.

The Board of Experts who helped select the nominations and then voted for winners are from all over the world. They run prominent Web Sites, serve as Microsoft MVPs, and write for Smartphone & Pocket PC magazine and other organizations. These experts all are volunteers and none are employed by Smartphone & Pocket PC magazine.

Special 21 page report with live URLs

 A 4 MB PDF special downloadable report ($5.95) available at www.pocketpcmag.com/awards contains screen shots and descriptions of all Best Software Award Pocket PC and Smartphone winners, as well as a listing and URLs of the finalists. As a bonus, judges reveal their favorite software and why, and make recommendations about the best GPS software.

The report is given free to new Smartphone & Pocket PC subscribers. All this information and more can be found in the Smartphone & Pocket PC 2007 Buyers Guide, mailed to subscribers and appearing on newsstands starting mid-October.
