Hi Steve,
So this 9510 won't be pen based like pictures show on the website? Do
you know anymore details?
T
He other thing to considder is syncronisation remotely - i.e, will it be
possible in the later comunicator? Pocket PC devices can now do this
with Exchange servers using Remote Activesync, and I can say from
experience here that it works very well - syncing both email and the
calendar in a sensible fashion, very similar to the Blackberry.
Thanks,
Andrew.
