So, I&#8217;m always looking for ways to avoid using AS (in Windows XP) and WMDC (in Windows Vista). If you are of a like opinion, you might find Google Mail (Gmail) and Google Docs might be a big help in moving Word Mobile and Excel Mobile files around.<\/p>\n<p>Just mail the Word or Excel file to your Gmail account. It will auto-recognize the file type and give you the option to open the file in Google Docs. There is a brief period needed to transform the file to HTML. After that is done, you can edit the file in a Google Docs web app. If you want it back on your Pocket PC or Smartphone, just email it back to an address your Windows mobile device knows about.<\/p>\n<p>Google Docs doesn&#8217;t understand every Word or Excel formatting feature. But, if you keep your file formatting simple, you should be able to get a lot of mileage using your Windows Mobile device with Google Docs. And, you don&#8217;t need ActiveSync or WMDC at any point.<\/p>\n<p>BTW: Google can display PowerPoint files on the web too. Editing is supposed to be in the works, but I don&#8217;t know when that feature will be available.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;ve had issues with ActiveSync and WMDC in the past like many other people.
