Does anyone did a internal memory upgrade to 128mb in the Qtek S100? Where? Is it worth the price?
Thanks!!!
It's awesome ... 57Mb internal RAM is simply not enough. After the 128Mb upgrade, I did not have to select what to install in RAM anymore, and everything runs more smoothly than it did in 64Mb (I have an upgraded i-Mate Jam)

where did you upgrade your i-Mate? Just curious.. 8)
What exactly are you using all that RAM for? I've installed all I need, and I have plenty of space left.
Hi,
How can I upgrade my ram? Is it possible to use parts of other pocket pc's? I have a Qtek2020 which I could use for parts... (it's screen is broken)...
Thanks,
JeDa
Mine was upgraded by www.ppctechs.com. I have a requirement for the following programs to reside in RAM, since about 3 hours of my working day are spent connecting to the corporate Lan with a wireless SD card. One look at the list should indicate that I mostly use my PPC professionally.

Looks really powerful! I might check this out!

Looks good, really good. But if you're at your own premises (like you said) you might as well use the real thing on a full size computer with a full size keyboard to save some time.
KSE Truefax
Why? You must have fax machines at your company?
PocketPlan
Useful if you have project plans allocating your time on an hourly basis, if not - why do you need it in your pocket?
Citrix Client
VNC Client
Terminal Services client
All three of them? You should have your company selecting a standard environment. And WTS client is in ROM so that does not really count as something requireing space on your device.
TomTom
For navigating the corridors?
Adobe Acrobat
Reader or writer? At least on the QtekS100 there is an acrobat reader included in the ROM.
PocketLauncher
With SPB PocketPlus, why do you need this?
Peacemaker
Why exactly do you need this if you're connected to the WLAN?
Commontime mNotes
I guess if you're stuck with Notes you're stuck with this.
PIToday
Something like this should really be standard, but I personally prefer tAgenda. And does PIToday work with mNotes?
Hudson Phonedashboard
You have a company phone, right? So why bother?
PocketZenPhone
Nice one. But not really useful until I can use the volume slider to pick between different profiles.
Tube PRO London and Paris
Beutiful!
Pocket Informant
Does this work with mNotes or is it just a "nice to have"?
Sprite Backup
Is this really necessary? If you syncronize with your server using mNotes it seems a bit overdoing it.
SPB PocketPlus
This should be on every PPC!
SPB GPRS Monitor
Again, why? I used it for the trial period to find out roughly how much I was spending, but now I just don't bother. If I don't need to know I don't want to know.

It's mainly for reference purposes during meetings. The sheets I work with sometimes lose formulas in the translation to Pocket Excel
KSE Truefax

Yes, but some faxes I receive are confidential
PocketPlan

I have project managers in my staff, and need to able to see impact of changes in resource allocation, time frame changes, delivery delays during meetings in which we discuss these

My company has a standard environment. Our customers usually do not.
TomTom

For getting to my office Actually I travel a lot by car, both for work and private.
Adobe Acrobat

Reader, and it's better than the westtek one, period.
PocketLauncher
With SPB PocketPlus, why do you need this?
I like tabbed menus better full screen than on the today screen. I do use pocketPlus, but only one single line for the key programs. The rest are organized in Pocket Launcher
Peacemaker
Why exactly do you need this if you're connected to the WLAN?
Peacemaker helps me exchange appoinments with people who have PalmOS (quite a few among my customers do)
Commontime mNotes
I guess if you're stuck with Notes you're stuck with this.
Yep
PIToday
Something like this should really be standard, but I personally prefer tAgenda. And does PIToday work with mNotes?
That's the fun of it. Regardles of what you use, all appointments go into the pocketpc underlying database. All PIMs are nothing but frontends in front of that same database. PIToday provides the list on the today screen, pocket informant gives me a more complete and detailed view when actually planning, and mNotes synchronizes that same underlying database with Lotus Notes.
Hudson Phonedashboard
You have a company phone, right? So why bother?
No, the PDA is private but I use it for work. The phone part contains my private number. I also have a company phone, but that is a phone only.
PocketZenPhone
Nice one. But not really useful until I can use the volume slider to pick between different profiles.
useful enough for me though
Tube PRO London and Paris
Beutiful!

Pocket Informant
Does this work with mNotes or is it just a "nice to have"?
As with PIToday above. PIToday is only a today plugin, Pocket Informant is the real PIM, and yes, Pocket Informant Rocks!! (and mNotes synchronizes my data from Lotus Notes to the PPC Database, so yes, for use with Pocket Informant.
Sprite Backup
Is this really necessary? If you syncronize with your server using mNotes it seems a bit overdoing it.
Yes, it is neccessary. A PPC usulaly not only contains data that can be synchronized with the desktop, but also license files, configuration files, favourite settings etc. Besides, PPCs do crash, and having a self extracting backup handy on a memory card gets you up and runnign in 30 seconds, back to the state your machine was in before the crash.

I need to know, since it's my private subscription. Aside from this, quite a few companies allow you to use a company phone, but with a quota above which one has to prove the calls are buisiness related, so yes, tracking calls may actually be of importance for more people than you would imagine.
Of course, the reply above was mine. Forgot to log in ...

Ok, I wont quote the long text :wink:
Although I would have chosen to carry a small laptop for some of the tasks I agree that if you don't you probably need most of the software you listed.
To Wiz:
With all those application running, How is the battery life on 128MB ?
thank you
As far as I can tell, battery life is roughly the same with 128Mb installed, maybe slightly better even since I do not have to start programs from SD anymore.
how much memory now is free after a hard reset?
Hello,
I came across a new phone released in India last month that has this interesting feature..... an inbuilt business card scanner.
check out the specs at http://www.spicemobile.in/model_fer_s1000.aspx
I did some further browsing and came across some sites with softwares that claim to do the same except that they use the 2.0 MP camera as an OCR device and captures the business card, extracts the data and saves it in Pocket Outlook to be saved for synchronizing in Outlook 2000 and above.
Does anyone have any experience using this type of software?????

Update.... Just found out that the Spice Phone model is actually a rebadged Asus P525.
Sheesh!
No news on the card scanner software though.
Will keep you posted.

The Mobipocket Reader is available for quite any mobile platform. The Reader supports many features, like automatic scrolling, fonts, screen rotation, etc.
Wikipedia issues are available as well, which makes it the perfect companion for me.
These are the ones i use

I hope someone can help me! Im looking for a windows mobile app to use on my HP IPAQ Glisten where I can take a picture of the VIN number on an automobile or barcode and insert the text into another running app. I purchased an Socket SDIO infrared barcode scanner for another phone that worked great by scanning barcode, converting it to text and inserting into another program you could designate in setup. I dont have SDIO slot now ant want to use camera. Thanks all!
I think you should buy SDK and develop the application yourself or hire some one develop the program for you. AIPSYS has the professional SDKs and professional teams for program customization.
Hi Everyone,
A few days ago I bought a Palm Treo 500 on eBay which arrived yesterday. I assumed it would be just like my very worn out XDA Orbit, just with a keyboard and no touchscreen. It seems I was very much mistaken. The Palm runs WM6 Standard and I am stunned at all the missing features compared to the professional version.
Some current annoyances are:
Outlook wont let me specify more than one email account at the same domain. It says name already used.
I can't customise the home screen and or start menu.
Cannot edit repeating entry pattern in outlook
Cannot create word and excel docs
and on and on and on....
I always liked my Windows Mobile but I had only ever used the Pro version.
So, my question is:
What can I do about my Treo? Can I upgrade it to the Pro version. I know I can buy extra software to address some of my issues (docs to go, pocket informant etc) but spending on extra apps seems daft when I could have just bought something like an XDA mini with the pro OS in ROM.
Thanks for your help
Richard
Someone with the same device needs to dump his rom take out the drivers,
insert them into a WM 6.1 rom at best, create an image and upload it here.
Your Treo seems to be the only model without touchscreen.
I could not find a anything about your device on this site,yet.
Thank you for your reply. It looks like I will have to either accept the shortcomings and buy add-on software or stick it back on ebay and look for something different.
Cheers
Richard
