Hi Everyone,

I own an Axim X50v running Windows Mobile 5.0. I would like to "rename" my device on the network. For example in Windows XP, you can right-click on My Computer, select Properties, and in the Computer Name tab there are options to provide a Network name or ID for your PC.

I would like to provide a similar name for my Axim. Can this be done (and how)?

A related question, can I browse a file share on my wireless network from my Axim (and copy files to the SD card)? If so, how?

Thanks in advance for your help!
Jared
