I finally caved on my promise to never buy an integrated PDA phone. Coming from years of stand-alone PDAs and a Blackberry 8703, this is quite a new experience. The phone looks good, but I find the PDA/phone integration confusing....too many buttons....too much tapping to get simple functions.

In the meantime, I can't get the PDA to access other computers on my local subnet. I can authenticate to the WAP, get an IP address and even get to the internet. However, when I try to access a share on another machine (no problem for my X51V or HX4705), I'm told to change my connection settings. Of course, Microsoft doesn't elaborate as to what the change is.

My XV6800 phone is on the Verizon network. Is the WM6 OS modified to prevent local share access using the integrated WiFi adapter? With my stand-alone PDAs, all I have to do is authenticate to the WAP and then to the other computer hosting the share I want to access.

Can someone give me a hand? Thanks in advance.

Jeff

All,

Disregard my WiFi issue. Resco to the rescue.... No problem accessing local shares anymore.

I'd be curious what you think about the XV6800. I was going to get that unit, but the SCH-i760 was the only WM6 phone out at the time and Verizon told me they weren't sure when it was going to be available. Oh well...I still like the i760 a lot even so.
