FryWalker from XDA-developers forum has made a Spotify client for Windows Mobile. The program is still in beta, so it’s not bug-proof.
Features:
> Full implementation of the Spotify search and top list functions
> Play list support – easy access to all your favourite tracks (up to 150 tracks per play list)
> Choose your own media player – define how each track is played (GSPlayer (free) and PocketPlayer are recommended*)
> Album artwork shown by preference
As with every other Spotify program, a premium subscription to Spotify is required for this to work. Download the program here.
Google’s Android operating system is catching up on Apple’s iPhone OS, which has led analysts to believe that Android will beat Apple in 2013, to become worlds second most popular mobile OS. This has made a few iPhone developers thinking about changing to Android, including Tapulous, the company behind the hugely successful Tap Tap game.
We previously wrote that Tapulous is making nearly $1 million a month with their Tap Tap games on the App Store. So getting a game this big to the Android Market is good news for everyone with Android.

A shady image of what is clearly a computer render, here is a picture of Motorola’s MOTOSPLIT. Since it’s a render, you can’t be 100% sure that is even a real phone, but it sure looks interesting.
Motorola MOTOSPLIT has a split QWERTY-keyboard, much like the one seen on Nokia’s 6820. This thing is rumored to run on Android powered by a Snapdragon processor. Hope to see more or this thing later.

Could be considered not important by many, but I find it a little bit interesting, Bill Gates is using Twikini on his Windows Mobile powered device. This kind of news is what you get on a slow Sunday ;) Have a nice day!
