Sorry this is not a accessory type of thing, but then again I suppose I could be.

But anyway, is there a SMS PC emulator available for Windows Mobile 6. I would like to be able to send and receive SMS MMS with my PC as a gateway. So an incoming SMS would display on my PC and I would be able to reply to the SMS from my PC, with my phone actually sending the SMS.

If there are any options I would really like some input. I am not really looking for a complete WM6 emulator, just a SMS gateway or emulator.

Thanks,
Beau

Dashwire was just what I was looking for, thanks. After a few days of using it I found that it is perfect when it is properly sync'ed. But it seems to loose sync often, but that could be that this is my 1st WM6 device, and I haven't quite found a proper way of keeping it running in the background. Even though dashwire said the did not support the verizon xv6800, but I told them that I had a different carrier of the same model and it appears to work.

Mymobiler, I could not get to work, although admittedly, I have not tried too hard to get it to work even though I do have use for a remote "desktop" for my WM6. Right after installing my virus scanner said it was trying to connect to the internet, and I told the program to deny the request. Why would it need access to the internet. Perhaps that is why it is not working. But like I said I have not really looked into why it's not working.

Thanks!

It's not that it needs to access the internet, just that it needs to access the network. ActiveSync connects via a "fake" network connection. By blocking MyMobiler, you prevented it from talking to the phone.

On dashwire, do you have it set to automatically sync? It works fine for me with that set.

Yeah, last night I took the time to actually read in detail the message about mymobiler, and now it works!

And as far as dashwire goes, it seems to work for a few hours and then it fails, until I close the program, and restart dashwire. I will give the settings a double check.

BTW: I was brave last night and flashed my phone to WM6.1 with GPS. It was very easy, a little confusing and got some conflicting instructions. Did not even have to call Verizon to authenticate!
