| 256130 | 2004-07-29 09:26:00 | Personally I love the iPaq. I don't see anything wrong with it, it's nice to hold. But that's just my opinon. | Growly (6) | ||
| 256131 | 2004-07-29 09:31:00 | I was talking about the blackberry device being ugly, not the Ipaq. Lo. |

| 256132 | 2004-07-29 11:47:00 | I know, I just thought that the iPaq needed a bif of an ego boost.... As far as the connectivity is concerned: Being online to receive data, like in Mobile Jetstream is considered a call in itself. Only that call can be made, unless you organise to channels with the telco. That means you can either receive calls or receive emails. (I only have experience with the telecom network). |

Believe it or not, the P900 is incompatible with Exchange Server 2003 as we don't use pop3 email on it, and to access the emails residing on the Exchange Server requires a Windows OS on the PDA / Phone... I had thought about 2 phones, but then there's the issue of carkits, etc. My preference is to have the new Nokia phone with bluetooth and GPRS and connect this to a bluetooth PDA. Using GPRS (always on so no dial up required) I would hope to access this through a PDA's bluetooth connectivity. I reckon a bluetooth PDA running the new Windows OS might have to be the way to go to connect to a phone. There's the issue of a bluetooth carkit too... ;) Lo. |

Yup - but we don't use pop3... following a hijacked server, our IT people refuse to allow us pop3 email access. Hence all our email resides on the server. I do use Outlook Web Access heaps though! I think some of my tenants consider me mad when I check my email at all sorts of hours... Lo. |

| 256138 | 2004-08-04 19:01:00 | There are feature in Exchange Server 2003 (and add on for earlier versions) secifically designed for communications with PDA . Have a look as . slipstick . com/addins/mobile . htm" target="_blank">www . slipstick . com or do a search on the net . I download emails on a PDA but it is via WiFi and a pop3 server so is not truly mobile as I have to be at a WiFi hotspot (but WiFi cellphones are starting to make an apperance so that may extend it's mobility) . I've tried accessing our campany outlook web access but on a 320x320 screen it is not really usable (same problem with other webmail account I have tried) . Can be done but I wouldn't recommend it . So you may need the support of your IT people to enable some of the Exchange Server's mobile feature to get anything workable . |
