PocketPC as a USB Mass Storage Device

[Jez]

Hey All,
I know you can store files etc on the PocketPC and its storage cards through activesync, but every time you copy from/to it goes through the active sync tranfser window etc. Also, you cant just double click a file on the pocket pc, if you do it just brings up the files properties (you have to copy it locally to open it).

Is there a way to make the pocket pc act like a storage device, such as a usb hard disk or pen drive, where you dont need activesync, you can just double click files to open them etc.

Cheers,
Jez.

yes

but it demand that the pda support usb host

non of the xda series support it

some of the toshiba pda's and the acer pda i just got the other day
support it

there are some CF cards which have usb host options
but it would require the xda to haev the backpack to use CF cards

and not sure if it would be compatible

Hi Jez, unfortunately this is not possible with the standard software.
