You're goin' to like this one...

If you want to change the MPx220 device name, without editing the registry, that stuff always scares me. You can do the following:

1. Use ActiveSync to do it.
2. Set up a partnership with a PDA or something like that, but change its device name to SmartPhone.
3. Set up a partnership with the phone now, and ActiveSync will ask for a unique name. (The MPx220 default is SmartPhone)
4. Key in what you want. Now other devices will see your phone with this new name.

It may be easier to edit the registry, but here's a workaround.
