Splash Name and Phone After Reset

Does anyone know of a program that can splash my name and phone number each time I reset my PDA? On my old iPAQ, I changed MonoCube's SafeMode message to splash my identity instead of "tap here to enter safe mode."

If I lose my PDA...and if an HONEST person finds it, I'd like to make it easy to contact me.

You can set your Ax to display your name etc. every time it's powered up. The setting for that is in the same area as where you enter owner info... sorry, can't recall the exact place, and I have WM2003se anyway.


I use NiceStart, which kicks in if I haven't used my Ax for a while. Shows name, phone, and prompts for password.

Thanks Noisy Crow. Should have looked first before posting. I'll take a look at Nice Start. TranCreative makes great products.

You can always downgrade to WM2003se!

If you find an alternative, let us know. NiceStart is such a great utility - it's unfortunate that they haven't done a WM5 version.

He's got an x51v - there's no downgrade available to make it WM2003SE compatible, IIRC...
