Task Manager for Windows Mobile
One of the most annoying things about Windows Mobile devices is that by default you can only close an application by clicking on the start menu, settings, system, memory, and then running programs tabs. Then you highlight an item and click stop. Whew. That's a 7 click solution.While there are a number of programs out there that let you convert the X button in the upper right corner from "minimize" to "close," or give you a list of running programs to close, sometimes you just want more information. A whole lot more.
That's where Task Manager comes in. This program gives you pretty much everything you can get from the Windows task manager, and then some. Running processes, check. System devices, got it. Sort system process by CPU usage or RAM, check your IP configuration or you know, close active programs. There's also a registry editor packed in there.
Oh yeah, and did I mention that this is a free download? The only downside is you have to register for the buzzdev forums if you want to use the download link.

All you have to do is copy the file to your PDA and click on it through file explorer. You can also create a shortcut and place it in the start menu if you want to be able to access it without using file explorer.
The UPXed version is basically just a compressed version. It takes up less space on your PDA when you're not using it, but when you launch the program it will probably use more memory than the non-UPXed version. Other than that, they're exactly the same.

It's worth mentioning that this only works with the PDA version of Windows Mobile, not the Smartphone version.
