Its slow no matter what refresh rate you set. That is one of the problems with it as it is Free. If yoru going to use it a lto I would shell out the bucks for the other program.

Pocket Controller does support PPC 2003.

I loaded the program, but when it runs on the desktop, the display is blank...not sure it's connecting to Axim.

Please advise.

Got it! Cool.

The performance of Pocket Controller is significantly better than any of the others in this space, it also has a lot more features.

At the Pocket PC Summit in Las Vegas a couple of months ago Pocket Controller won the award for the best product in this space.

There is also a review on this very site by Chris Leckness at he following link:

To answer the question "Does it work on PC 2003 " ?

Downloaded it on my Axim X3 (xmas Gift). Fired up the wireless and it worked without a hitch.

Any chance you can cut and paste ? Didn't find an easy way ...

SOTI

The product does support copy and paste of text between your desktop programs and your mobile device programs.

To enable this feature you need to make sure you enable the 'Automatically Synchronize Clipboards' option from the Edit menu.

I have seen the discussion about loading your PPC on your desktop, but can you do it the other way round. Run your desktop from your PPC 2003.
What software would I use.

I use VNC for remotely controlling my desktop.

It works with Windows and Linux, and there is a PPC version of the viewer software to control the desktop from the Axim.

All in all, quite handy. And completely free.



Also, I suppose you could use the built-in Terminal Services Client on the Axim.

SOTI

I have read a bunch of discussions in regard to using VNC to control your desktop computer from your Pocket PC. From what I have heard it seems that VNC on Pocket PCs can be a bit shaky and does not work on all Pocket PCs. In cases where it does work it is usually slow.

There is a product from a company called Bitween (i.e. http://www.bitween.com) that sounds like it is more stable and works in most cases but trying to operate a computer with a big screen from a computer with a tiny screen is always clunky and cumbersome.

There is another class of product that takes a different approach to this problem. This class of product does not attempt to show the screen of the big computer on the small screen of a Pocket PC, instead it provides a series of dialogs/user interfaces that let you access the services of the big computer. For example there may be a dialog that lets you see the running programs and allows you to remotely start or stop a program. Other dialogs might allow you to control services, transfer files, view the event log etc. An example of this sort of program is available from Sonic Mobility (i.e. http://www.sonicmobility.com). The Sonic Mobility solution is a bit pricy but there are several other companies that offer cheaper solutions.

Hope this helps.
