We are already familiar with FreeCabs, an Internet site that lets you download those well-known CAB files for lots of applications directly onto the Pocket PC. That then allows you to install these applications without ever having had to resort to a desktop PC.
Dweller is along the same lines, except that it's a separate, free-standing application, with all the convenience that implies.
To start with, you download the list of (freeware or shareware) applications available on Dweller's server. This all takes place automatically: you just need to have your Pocket PC connected to the Internet and run the update.
Broken down by category, each program has a short description (in English only). A little icon indicates whether or not it's already installed on your Pocket PC. If so, you can uninstall it or update it. If not, Dweller lets you download and then install it -- you can choose where, but the use of a program like File Dialog Changer is recommended --, all in a few clicks.
In short, Dweller is a true program installation manager that allows you to dispense with a PC.
As it's in development, the number of programs available is as yet low, there are still some bugs, and some functions (account management, on-line saving of list of preferred applications, software purchases from Dweller's Web site, etc.) have yet to see the light of day.
Nonethess, this software's originality and usefulness portend a great future for it.
