Huuum. Interesting..
Nobody pointed out definition of HARD RESET in original post.
I think if you push Hard Reset button, You'll lose all your data including BIS (Built In Memory, ROM) Except storage card (I mean Data). Hard Reset means your axim set to 'Factory Setting'. Am I wrong ?

PAUL SAUL, yes cLaunch works GREAT. Read the Green text on the 1st post.

RAY1_VAC, there is no Hard Reset button, only a soft reset button. As it is pointed out, you only clear out RAM when you hard reset. BIS and storage cards are not cleared out by hard resets. Yes, it is like a factory reset. To hard reset you do a combination of pressing the soft reset and power button at the same time, read your PDA manual for exactly how to do it.

I added screenshots to the free list, GO CHECK IT OUT!!!

Now you can see what some of the free stuff looks like on my x51v.
Helpful for curious PDA users I think. Of course I used XNPocketView to take screenshots, but I scaled the images down and added the text info on the PC for useful commentary added to the images.

Some folks might want to have have both viewers available. resco allows you to view converted powerpoint presentations and sync them back and forth between your pc and ppc. for larger presentations it is easier than converting each slide into a jpeg.
Maybe it's just me but the Resco viewer seems to work better for me. I have a lot of images (several hundred) and I've noticed that in Xnview some of the larger files can't be opened. Also, I've had several instances where I've tried to resize an image and I kept tapping the resize button but it did nothing(only did this when doing a user defined resize which is the one you should use most.). One other thing that i'm not crazy about is the fact that I have to double tap on images to open/close them where as everything else requires a single tap.

I don't use the viewer much so I find XNView great when I do use it. As you say, I'm sure Resco does some things better, I may put Resco back on my PDA sometime just to see the extent of the differences, but you can't deny that XN is a great free app for users, especially Axim/non-Axim users who don't have access to a free Resco version.

Flash 6 on Axim x50v
Quote :
"Macromedia.com has a Flash player for the PocketPc that runs flash animations in the browser on the PDA. The problem is that this does NOT support all Flash animated pages. Sometimes you will browse a site that uses Flash that will cause your browser to close out. If you wish to browse pages that cause this, you can rename the Flash system file on your AXIM something else so that the Flash portions will not be rendered at all, in some cases though the web designers make Flash only pages in which case, you will not be able to see those sites until a better Flash player is released for Pocket PC. The file is found where you installed it (the file should be in your Windows main memory folder in the Macromedia folder):

Flash Player Version 6 for Pocket PC "


This is exactly what happened when I installed Flash 6 on my x50v. The puzzling thing is that the same Flash 6 installed on an ipaq 4150 (WM2003) displays the same website without any problems !

My question is: Could I missed a step or what ?

Could you be more specific when you said that I can overcome this "snag" by renaming the Flash 6 system file, like which exactly is the system file ? And, if I do this, does it mean that I have to rename it back when I come across sites that are friendly to Flash 6 ?

Thanks !!! Really appreciate help here. Thanks again !!
