The easiest way to install a program on the pocketpc is with activesync, which only runs under windows. So if you have windows, your life is made easier (in this one respect). However, if the program in question installs from a CAB file, instead of using a windows installer, then you can simply copy the program over to the pocket pc, and install it from there. So you don't need activesync, but you need a way to copy the file over. This could be an 802.11b card, or bluetooth, for that matter. If you are talking Palm, then there is support in both Linux and the MacOS for transferring data and programs over. Bob
