Video Demo: MyHome Interface Replacement for Windows Mobile

As we reported earlier, SHBT, a software development company out of Hungary, has come up with a new interface for Windows Mobile touchscreen devices called MyHome, which is demoed in this video.

MyHome is basically a fusion of Windows Mobile 6.1 Standard sliding panels with the look of Windows Mobile 7 (that we’ve seen in screenshots). This is somewhat good news, considering that the sliding panel interface is a great way to access information and content typically buried within various WinMo programs.

The program, which is available for 19.95 Euros (that’s around $26 – and a trial is available), is intuitive to use and looks great on a VGA screen. It’s somewhat similar to the beloved Spb Mobile Shell (which costs $30) in that it’s not a Today screen replacement – but rather a standalone program that you see when you turn on your device or exit programs. We wish that MyHome was a bit more customizable, and that it had a lower price. Even the weather functionality is an additional $8, bringing the total price for everything shown to about $34. Yikes.

Update: Two corrections…first, the weather software comes free with the purchase of MyhHome. Second, MyHome works with screen resolutions including WQVGA and WVGA, but not square (320×320 or 240×240).
