Syncing 2 pdas with 1 PC

imported_Vigilante · 01-05-05, 03:28 AM

My wife took a liking to my iPaq 2210 and now I have to share it with her. You can imagine that sharing a pda defeats the purpose of a PERSONAL digital assistant. So I am looking to buy a new pda for myself and surrender the 2210 to my Jawbreaker addict wife.

What I want to know is if we sync two pdas on the one PC, will it cause any problems? What if they are both 2210s?

What about if I decide to buy say a Toshiba PPC? Will the syncing have a problem?

Anybody out there had any experience in this area?

Welcome to the site

You can do this with no problem - just make sure that they have different names - ie if you currently sync with the default name of Pocket_PC make sure the second unit is called something different.

You just cannot sync them at the same time as Activesync will only sync just one PDA at a time.
