Default Help with 1935 Data Retrieval

Despite beeing ultra careful, I cracked the screen on my ipaq after just 3 months of use. The screen is still 100% viewable, but stylus taps are for the most part ineffective. So now I can't even type in my password to access my data and do some emergency file storage/retrieval before I retire this unit.

Strangely enough it still syncs with my PC without needing to type in a password. Which is fortunate under my circumstances. But whats the point in having password protection if all someone has to do is hook it up to a PC ?...all contacts, notes and calendar are viewable.

However, there is some data in add-on programs that cannot be accessed through ActiveSync, only through the PDA.

I thought about getting a wireless keyboard to by-pass the touch screen but that requires downloading a driver into the ipaq...would'nt that involve some stylus input on the screen? Or could I do the download using just the D-Pad for selecting whatever responses come up ?

New 1935 with PROPORTA HARD CASE on the way!

Thanks for any and all suggestions.
