[mahtab]

Hi
i am using SX56 PDA. when i send any song file from desktop to SX56 through synchronising using cardle it doesnot compress the data and take the same space in SX56 as in desktop PC.

thats how it works at least i've never heard about anything like compression being default or even an option you can choose using activeSync

maybe you could pay for some 3th party compression tool which works like it does on the pc but it would make the pda slower

If you're tryingto load music onto your SX56, you want to make sure you're loading .mp3 files. These can be encoded in different bitrates, a lower bitrate takes less space but may not sound as good. So you probably want to have them in a fairly low bitrate if you want to have small files and don't mind the quality deredation. You'd do this on your PC before moving them over to the SX56.

if you want as small as file as posible
i would most likely make it WMA with a 64K/sec setting
