Microsoft ActiveSync
I am writing programs to use this device (you pretty much have to since
no worth while scanning software comes with it).
As a result, Microsoft ActiveSync is used to copy files between
the development system and the Pocket PC.
According to the documentation, this is supposed to have the
following options.
- Serial cable
- USB
- Wireless
Well, the serial cable works just fine ...
however, the wireless connection DOES NOT WORK.
Pocket IE
Pocket IE is a light version of Internet Explorer that displays
small images. Google actually recognizes the small screen and
shows a smaller "palm" version of itself.
These are relatively minor problems/irritations.
- In forms, the <button> tag displays ok, but nothing happens
when the buttons are clicked.
- There is no option to view the source
- When frames are displayed, the separator bar can not be moved.
In one case, one frame was completely unreadable and the other
took the entire screen.
