Absurd that everything in my calender and email syncs up - but after owning this phone now for over a month I still have not managed to figure out how to move other data or install programs.

It must be really easy. I just don't have a manual for the phone. Is there a site with the user manual?

Sorry for this stupid question...

try doing a google search for xda manual pdf i'm sure it's out there in plenty

you install programs if they are pc install programs but running the exe file on the pc then it will install using activesync

you install programs in form of cab files by double clicking on them on your device

you run exe files made for pda's by clicking on the pda they dont need installs

you get data to the pda by
1 putting the files in my pocketpc documents or what ever it's called in your my doc dir

2 clicking on the explore device button in activesync or clicking on the pda icon in my computer

thank you for that explanation. it worked! I did find the user manual as a pdf file. It was helpfull - but this forum seems ahead of the curve.
One last question - have most people on this forum with the XDA II upgraded to the magneto OS?
