ThinkfreeI was expecting this beautiful thing to arrive at my place and was getting restless to give it a try. The thing which I’m talking about here is the ThinkFree portable edition drive. Finally, the day came when I received the the drive and got the opportunity to test it.

The drive has the capacity of 1 Gb and is a U3 smart drive with ThinkFree office pre-installed in it with some other important and free softwares. Here’s the list of software’s installed in the U3 drive :

  1. ThinkFree Portable.
  2. Portable Firefox.
  3. Portable Thunderbird.
  4. Foxit Reader for U3.
  5. Yahoo Widgets for U3.
  6. Dmailer Sync for U3.

U3menuAll these software come as part of the drive and in some way or the other pretty useful for most of the people. However, what impressed the most was the idea which will certainly help you and will make sure that you get the mobility even if you are not using your own computer.

With the help of ThinkFree portable edition, you’ll be able to not only view but you’ll be able to edit and save the important documents (word files, excel files or presentations) on your drive only. This can not only save lot of time and effort for you but immense comfort you get with it, can’t be described in words. Imagine! you don’t have to worry about any computer not having your favorite office application, as you are carrying it with you in your pocket and there is no need of installation required for it, just plug and play! ThinkFree office suite is not only impressive but it is one of the featured packed online office service and if you want to check, what exactly comes with the drive, then use the ThinkFree’s online edition. It is exactly same but the portable edition is much faster and is handy with you all the time, it is as fast as any other desktop software.

MobopicMoboPic is a service which lets you upload a picture from your computer or from other location on the web and then lets you crop the image according to your phones screen size, so that you can put it as wallpaper on your cell phone. What impresses me most is the huge list of cell phone manufacturers and the models with their screen size, so that you don’t have to remember the screen size of your cell phone.

However, what is missing in the service is that doesn’t allow you to send the resulting image to your cell phone. I guess that it should have a service where it lets you send the images directly to the cell phones with the help of SMS or MMS and I’m sure it will be able to attract huge crowd.
