Here's my third part in what will be a seven part Pocket Controller series! This time I am assisted by Brian Goldstein, a Pocket PC Thoughts visitor who just started using Pocket Controller! Brian writes:
"Well folks about 9 hours ago I established an activesync connection from my e740 to my PC via wiFi, and it is still active. A strange fluke you say? I can do it ALL THE TIME! How you ask? How much money you have? OK, Just kidding, but the workaround will cost you $25. No, not to me, to SOTI.NET for Pocket Controller! After reading about it on PocketPC Thoughts I gave it a try. Really cool app, and the side benifit is my activesync connection stays alive! I connect from Pocket Controller via wifi first, the start activesync. No more dropped connections in the middle of transfers (boy does Mazingo make a mess when the connection drops). So that's it folks, been working everytime! Best $25 I've spent since getting the e740!"
To Brian, Pocket Controller obviously adds stability to his ActiveSync setup. To me, as Pocket Controller can connect my Pocket PC to my desktop PC without ActiveSync means less of a dependency on ActiveSync!
Previous parts:
Things I Like With Pocket Controller Part I (skins)
Things I Like With Pocket Controller Part II (file system management)
Full disclosure: I am not associated with Pocket Controller in any way. I have received one free review copy, which is quite common. But that definitely does not lead to automatic raves. I just happen to like Pocket Controller very much.
