Have you wished your Windows Mobile 6 Device Had A Reboot Option Natively?
I had been using Celetask to do quick one button reboots but my trial expired and I really could not justify $7.95 just to reboot easier. User Maevro over at Howard Forums created a .cab file that adds a Reboot option to your Windows Mobile Device Quick List. Thats the one you get by hitting the power button once. This was tested on the Q, Dash, Wing and my Dopod 730 aka the Cavalier. It should work with all Windows Mobile 5 or 6 devices. Enjoy!
The Cab file can be downloaded here:
