Terry
Glad it worked for you. I know I had trouble with that at first until I got
Don's instructions. So the real thanks goes to Don.
And as for putting a bug in Ed's ear for that J-say package, well...the
ball's back in your court. Smile. Just kidding. Glad I could save you
some time, and good luck in LA. It's not often I have the answers on the
heavy stuff.

Well what a star you are my friend. I kind of guessed this is what Vicky
was
saying and intended to explore more this morning but you've saved me a
load
of time.
Tell Ed to do you a brilliant deal on your J-Say!
Thanks Vicky as well it certainly pointed me in the right direction.

These are the very clear instructions that Don Bishop posted some time
back
about connecting the mPower to the Internet via Active Sync. I can only
assume it works the same with the PK. I was amazed it worked so well.
Hope
this helps.
Actually, connecting to the net using usb and activesync is so simple that
it is almost confusing.
First of all, get connected to the pc using activesync over the usb
connection and establish a partnership if you haven't already.
Now, for the part you were actually asking about. Create a connectivity
configuration and when asked for the device to use, select ethernet. (I
know you aren't going to use ethernet and don't have a card, but trust
me!)
If you don't need dns addresses or use a proxy server you can let the
rest
of the options default.
Save the configuration and go back to the main menu.
Now, go to the internet and select or enter a site name and hit enter.
You'll be asked which connection you want to use and select the ethernet
connection you just created and press enter. The web page should come up
and you'll be on your way.
This same procedure works for email.
I just tried it here and it does work with keysoft 7 and the MPower.

All.
I need some fairly urgent help.
Essentially the hotel I am staying in doesn't have wireless access and
when
I try to connect a PK via a LAN card I get an error which may well relate
to
the fact that the IP knows I already have my PC registered for the
service.
So what I want to do is to share my PC's internet connection with the PK
via
Active sync.
I can either do this via USB cable or BlueTooth it really doesn't matter.
I've never had to do this before and although have tried some fairly
simple
steps to get it working it's not having any.
The urgency is that I need my wife who's PK it is to be able to check her
mail urgently as we are from the UK now in LA and are dealing with an
eight
hour backward timeshift meaning that in few hours it's the morning in the
UK
and she will need urgent access to her messages.
Any help as ever gratefully received.
Cheers!
