Default Adding Music

Then compare that process to pretty much any MP3 player on the market and you'll quickly see that WMP Mobile leaves much to be desired...
As darkassets mentioned, I primarily use my Q9m now, so I never use a stylus. However, I also have an iPAQ hx2790, so here's what I do to add music.
  1. I take my memory card out of the device and put it in my PC.
  2. I copy new albums that I've ripped (the folders in Windows) to the appropriate folder on the memory card.
  3. I launch WMP, sort by artist, find the new album and play it. (I may have to update the library, too, but I don't remember.)
Yes, on the iPAQ, I do have to use the stylus (or a fingernail), but I don't view that as a big deal. It's a stylus-based interface, so I deal with it. If non-phone Pocket PCs had softkey buttons, I might not have to use the stylus at all (assuming I have mapped the buttons in WMP to hardware buttons).
