Google Sync is working fine (so far) with my iPhone. And, I thought it was working ok with my HTC Vox (Windows Mobile Standard Edition). However, it is not working ok with the Vox today. ActiveSync reports 108 calendar items need syncing (seems a bit high since it synced ok just a day or two […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
I posted two items over on my MobileAppsToday blog… Google Sync (Beta) for iPhone & Windows Mobile: Think Before You Sync! Microsoft MyPhone Service Free, But Not Comparable to Apple MobileMe …that got me wondering if: 1. The Google Sync for iPhone & Windows Mobile made Outlook obsolete 2. If it made Microsoft’s MyPhone service […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Interesting that the list of supported devices listed in… Windows 7 Beta devices supported by Device Stage …includes smartphones from Nokia and Sony Ericsson but does NOT list any Windows Mobile smartphones.
I started the Windows Mobile Back to Basics blog series a month ago. Its purpose was to highlight the things about Windows Mobile that works. Why? Because it has been seriously outshadowed from a software point of view by both the iPhone and Google Android. And, I think aspects of hardware from Nokia have seriously […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
I was just reading a good review of the new Celio Redfly C8N terminal companion for Windows Mobile smartphones over on Brighthand… Celio Redfly C8N Review It looks like Celio listened to potential customers who told them their $500 price for the original model was way too high for a dumb terminal. The new C8N […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
My first T-Mobile Dash battery went bad after about a year of use. This was around last March or April (2007). I bought a new replacement battery through T-Mobile around that time. Today, I noticed that my battery was at 2% charge after turning it on. I had fully charged the battery the night before […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Hope this works Everything above the line above this sentence was created and sent from the ShoZu photo and video web service that claims to add value by being able to post media from mobile devices to numerous other media web services and blogs. It half-worked posting a photo from my iPod touch to this […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Google’s IMAP4 email service was so slow that it drained my Dash’s batteries 4% everytime it checked for mail. So, I removed it from the Dash’s Messaging (email) app last year. I decided it was time to check again. But, instead of the Dash, I decided to try using a TyTn (Windows Mobile 6 with […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Back when Windows Mobile was Windows CE (Windows Mobile is actually a shell on top of the previous Windows CE 5 generation), the Handheld PC was referred to as a PC Companion. Celio’s RedFly turns the tables on this old concept by looking like a mini-notebook PC but is actually an unintelligent companion to your […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
I cannot believe I did not know about this until yesterday. You all probably know that you can search through contacts and recent calls by typing a string on a Windows Mobile smartphone keyboard. Type O-G-A and my full name shows up as part of the search results of people in your contacts list, for […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Windows Mobile smartphones (Standard Edition) can be actually powered down. However, Pocket PCs (Professional & Classic Editions) are not really off unless the battery is pulled out. So, if you have an anniversary event (birthday, wedding anniversary) set in contacts, it wakes up at midnight and sets of the audible alarm (if that is turned […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Everyone probably knows about the Microsoft Silverlight-powered NBCOlympics.com site. But, did you know you can access its information AND videos on your smartphone too? Yep, head over to… mobile.nbcolympics.com I tested video playback on my iPod touch and found that it works fine. So, iPhone users will not be left out of the Olympics this […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
