HAPPY BEAU

hope not.....:)

Be careful. Do not use the VGA hack or VGA mode with this app. Don't even soft reset or you'll find that its demo period has expired.

As I've just discovered. Too late. Oh well, I like it anyway. being able to ping my machine from Axim is good.

Can you recommend another 'must have' wi-fi utility? I know about PocketWinC but haven't tried it yet. Don't think they have a trial version.

Ward

PocketWinC is good, but not VGA aware. This app was actually the best of them all, but far too expensive for an utility. The demo expiring and reports that registering the program is flaky have put me off until someone can report that things have been fixed.

I hate the Dell utility - How does this compare to that or Oddesy.

This program seems to work along the lines of VMobilesoft (www.vmobilesoftware.com)'s Network Browser application. I can say it is x50v friendly (works in landscape without program and full VGA via sevga quite comfortably) and network browser offers alot of functionality (such as mapping network drives similar to Resco File Explorer) and a few more goodies for its small footprint of 309KB. I'd skip socket's implentation until it matures, but thats just me.

This might explain it - http://www.socketcom.com/product/trial.asp

GarethWW

A-Ha!

Cheers Waterwagen - that would probably be it then.

Thanks.

No problem. Hopefully they'll get it back up soon.

A software update already? That's probably a good sign.
