Hi,
Facing a problem of Opening last viewed file.
Though i tried Leo's & pocketxPDF these software only provide last view file
setting in text mood.
Acrobat Reader 2.5 from quick office in windows smart phone doesn't provide last view setting.
Any idea of supporting Last view setting using windows smart phone.

Hello PocketPC guys !!
I was wondering how I could get my life more efficient using my Pocket PC. A Pocket PC is a great way to organize one's life, isn't it ?
How to use your Pocket PC to help you in daily work ? What tool do you use ? What tool would you like to use ?
Personally, I am using my PocketPC for this:
- As a task manager: I use Pocket Informant. I like the fact that you can have it sync with Outlook, but I am not happy with the fact that you can not make hierarchical tasks.
- As a diary: I use Pocket Informant
- to track my personal finance: with Cash Organizer. I have used Spb Finance for a long time, but I had lots of problem with it, so I moved to Cash Organizer, and I am pretty happy with it. I have seen that there is a new Spb Finance version, which works with Windows Vista, but I wonder if this version is stable because the previous one was not stable.
I do not use it for reading my emails, I think I should subscribe for a MS Exchange 2007 account, but I haven't found which one.

pretty much just pr0n jk
use it as music player
phone of cause
surf

Interesting question. Let's see:
1. As a journal for projects (Outlook Tasks, project = category)
2. Password / account info / etc. storage: (Outlook Notes, easy to lookup any info on desktop version)
3. Music Player (Pocket Player + HT820 or Monster's FM transmitter on car)
4. Financial manager (also Cash Organizer)
5. Internet Sharing at home.
6. Email / Chat (Outlook / Yahoo! but will try Fring...)
7. Agenda (Outlook Calendar Today plugin)
8. Camera
9. Gaming (mainly chess and FinalBurn)
10. Astronomy Map on observation nights (Pocket Stars)
11. Some Web Surfing (Opera and PIE+PLUS)
12. Alarm clock (Gentimer)(Yes, I actually threw out my old clock!)
13. Calculator (HP48 Emulator)
.... AND LAST BUT NOT LEAST....
14. Phone!

I haven't yet found a good hierarchical task manager. Although I would love to manage my tasks via Outlook, I find it too much limited: I need a way to organize them in a hierarchy. Are your project organized in a hierarchical order ? or is it a list of flat tasks linked to a project ?

You are like me, you probably haven't be satisfied with the password managers (flexwallet, Spb Wallet, eWallet, ...). I hate the way they are organized: I don't need to have a screen displaying a credit card to understand that this is my credit card number ! just having nice fields that I could customize the way I want would be better.
Anyway take care that no one as access to it.

I have tried Spb Time but wasn't happy with at all: the way to set an alarm is such a crap. I just had a look on the Web about Gentimer, seems to be nice. I will have a look at it. Currently I use the default Windows Mobile clock (!)

What application do you use to read books ? I would love to read pdf on my PocketPC, but the pdf readers I have tried so slow and so badly done (often no fullscreen mode, so when you have a QVGA screen it could useful).

Hello Chris247,
1. You are right, my tasks are just listed under a particular category which is the project. The only other classification is the status of the task. However, I just need to able to search for keywords to find tasks and info, and see which ones are due (red color) in my calendar view.
2. The other problem for me using those password managers is that I need a separate desktop program tp lookup stuff, yet, using notes I can just use the search function in Outlook and get my info FAST! And yes, sometimes I worry about the security of the information...
So the bottom line for me is being able to input the information fast and easy on the ppc, and then be able to search for it fast and easy with the desktop computer and/or the ppc. I use to love my Palm IIIxe from years ago, but at some point I was handling more than 15 projects at a time, which exceeded the maximum categories supported by the palm OS. I even called them once to complaint about it. Back then they said they didn't have plans to change it. LOL! I wonder if they ever did fix that...
i too use hp48 emulator both on my pda and my pc
i just read ebooks with ms's reader it got bookmarks which bothered me that old adope 2 dident
when books are in pdf i got a pc tool to convert it to lit
About the away you manage tasks, maybe you could benefit from PlanPlus for Outlook, I read that they do support hierarchical, I haven't tested it yet.
i have been using PI7 for quite some time and find this programme a must have.
recently i upgraded to PI8 and this is gr8.

however i cannot do this in PI8.in monthly view only a bar is shown and u need to tap on it to open and see what is the appointment.
has anyone managed to do this??
With Opera Mobile 9 will automatically cravate favorite images after viewing the page you want.
You can simulate something with Opera Mobile 10, since it is not supported?
You can manually add thumbnails to bookmarks on the internet page (I can't remember where they're stored - someone will be able to advise you), but it's a pain, and you can't add new shortcuts to bookmarks that you've made in Opera 10 - only 9.7 and IE.
I personally got rid of the internet tab and just put Opera in the top row of my main page of quicklinks, so it's available from my home tab. Since it starts up with the "start grid" (unless configured otherwise), it's equally as good as the shortcuts on the opera tab.
Just a suggestion.

Is there a way to fix the web snapshot for the Internet thumbnail section if you remove one from the windows/temp folder by mistake. Because now it won't take a thumbnail web snapshot if I add to visual bookmarks

I deleted the one i had for BBC Football as i didnt like they image and now i cannot get an image to display for that favourite.......is there a register entry or something i need to clear to restore thing?
i think i might have found a way...place your favourite in internet tab, then, in order to have thumbnails, open pocket internet explorer, go to favorites and open web pages (the one placed on internet tab) and let them full load. if you close pie at this point you can see thumbnails in internet tab, tap on them and they will be opened with setted default browser, opera 10 in this case

I think I figured it out about this bookmark thing. I have notice in opera 9.7 that the little symbol next to web address that looks like a box with lines in it is all mess up. Now I don't know what that symbol represents but I think by fixing this it will fix the problem.
Not sure where to post this so here goes.....
I have an HTC Touch Pro 2 and usually use Opera Mini.
In the past, I had been able to go to the mobile version of Google docs through Opera, log in, click on a PDF file, save to My Documents and then open the file through My Documents which allowed me to then zoom in/out as needed to read the document.
As of a day or two ago, whenever I click on a PDF, it simply opens except the pages are so small it's impossible to read the text. The zoom bar doesn't do anything. Double clicking doesn't do anything. Hold clicking on the file doesn't give any option to save/download the file.
I've logged in through my laptop and although PDF's do open directly in Google Docs when you click on them, if you right click it does give you an option to download. I can't seem to find this option anywhere on my phone, although it used to be the default option up until 2 days ago.

I have installed Opera 10. How do I get to add favourites in the favourites menu in Sense? Tried adding bookmarks in IE Favourites, but that didn't help.
if thats possible would be great...

Anyone who can help with this issue?
Open the Bookmark-URL in Internetexplorer and let the page be loaded fully. Then close Explorer and preview will be showed. Works not on all pages but most of them
Good luck
This is how I did it.
This worked on my Miri ROM. When I click on a blank internet tab shortcut it takes me to the Opera 9.7 bookmarks even after making Opera 10 my default. I had to switch back to 9.7 as default and set all of the sense tab shortcuts with images generated.
When you do this it creates a number of image files in the Windows/Thumbnail sub-directory with long coded names. It also creates an .icn file in Windows/Opera9/profile/Images, named as the www url name of the shortcut.
You then switch back to Opera 10 as default and Opers 10 uses the page image shortcuts. You can edit the Windows/Thumbnail images and save the new image with the same name and you will get the new thumbnail image directed to the same url it was originally associated with.
Set 9.7 as default in Settings/Advanced. You need to re-install 10 to set as default as it only asks on install.
The long coded names change with each assigned url. I do not know how they are generated or how they relate to the .icn files. If this process was known it might be possible to change the shortcuts without reverting back.
If your original default browser was IE you may have to do the same, but roll back to IE not 9.7.
I can only say this worked on the Miri ROM.
Opera Mobile 10 has a big advantage, it can sync bookmarks, speed dial icons and history with any Opera Link enabled desktop Opera. It's enough to use a portable version, that can import IE favorites as well. On top of that the password file (wand.dat) is also compatible.
I find it much more convenient to manage this data on my PC and then sync it to the PDA.
