„Then an odd thought struck me. I thought that probably the best synching software would come from Microsoft and would work perfectly well with the Pocket PC.“

„People were asking me what applications and e-Books I use on my Pocket-PC. Below I will sum up the list of the need to have apps on my Pocket-PC. I will update this log (Category: about this site) once in a while, so please come back to see if I discovered new applications or added links to applications.“http://www.obels.org/mt/archives/2004/04/08/ medical_pocketpc_essentials.html - Cached

„Many former palm and psion users, who see my ipaq, ask me if there is a good database program on it. Others say there are two shortcomings on an ipaq: one is the missing keyboard (a clamshell like the psion) and two is a missing database program.“http://www.obels.org/mt/archives/2004/02/.../ the_perfect_database_for_a_pocketpc.html - Cached

„The move is going to seem odd to observers, since Microsoft builds Outlook into its mobile platforms, from PocketPC down to the newest Orange SPV Smartphone. And Outlook (or Pocket Outlook) does both email and calendaring. The difference, according to Geoffrey Baird, CEO of Commtag, is the push that Commtag provides.“http://www.newswireless.net/articles/ 030109-duality.html - Cached
„While working with Excel spreadsheets can be challenging on a small screen, most all Current Sony Clié and Palm Tungsten models as well as the Zire 71 do have a higher resolution 320 x 320 (or 320 x 480) pixel displays which Docs To Go 5 does takes advantage of. This means you'll enjoy more screen real estate than on the Pocket PC which as a 240 x 320 pixel display. If you're content to view a few docs and spreadsheets on your PDA for reference, the standard resolution 320 x 320 resolution Palm or Clié models will do just fine, as will the Pocket PC.“http://www.pdabuyersguide.com/tips/ palm_vs_pocketpc.htm - Cached
„I'll present a day of typical situations that I use a PDA for, & then compare how I used a Jornada 545 & Palm IIIc to handle each situation. Next I'll describe a typical instance from my day where I would need to use several apps in succession to field a phone call & make an appointment & all the notetaking along with that. Lastly, I'll discuss some overall differences & show some other apps & utilities that make everything come together to make the Palm a more elegant solution for me than the Pocket PC. I'll say right up front that I'll probably wind up switching at some point to another device & OS. Right now the Palm OS works very well for me, though. The Palm has a definite advantage with the third-party software available for it, but the HP's hardware & elegance are stunning. I searched out all the apps I could find to make the Jornada do everything & more than my Palm IIIc could. More shareware has come out since I started my comparison that is beginning to bridge the gap between the Palm & Pocket PC OS.“http://www.the-gadgeteer.com/ daily-comparison-palmos-pocketpc1-article.html - Cached

„The Pocket PC operating system is vast and complex. Computer professionals adore its seething power and the way it effortlessly synchronizes with your copy of Microsoft Outlook whenever it's connected to the PC (you don't even have to push a button). Mere mortals, though, are likely to operate as they do in Windows: they'll master only the features they need to get their work done, uncomfortably aware that they're ignoring the rest.“http://www.russellbeattie.com/notebook/ 1001836.html - Cached
„A couple of new Pocket PC from Asus, the MyPal A716, which will have built-in WiFi and Bluetooth, and the MyPal A8100 (pictured at right), a Pocket PC Phone. Besides the WiFi and Bluetooth, the A716 will have a 400MHz processor, 64MB of RAM, and both SD and CompactFlash memory card slots. We're more excited about the A8100, though, which with its fold down keypad looks a bit like Sony Ericsson's new P900 smartphone.“http://www.stargeek.com/item/36819.html - Cached
