Because it is an ActiveSync extension, only around 11 Kb needs to be installed on the device plus the theme currently viewed. Only 1 theme is installed at any time, but every time you insert the device into the cradle it checks if a make-over is scheduled and downloads a new theme to the device."<br /><br /><img src="http://www.pocketpcthoughts.com/images/hansberry/2003/20031013-themesync.gif" /><br /><br />It requires ActiveSync 3.7 or higher and for now, it only works on Windows Mobile 2003 for Pocket PC, and best of all, its free! :D

Norton detected a malicious script when installing. Is this thing safe?

TIA!

At first I thought it was a theme that looked like ActiveSync. That would be messed up.

It is a neat idea but I wouldn't use it. I have one theme that I have been using for a year now. I like it the way it is. That would make a good front page poll. How often do you change your theme?

Nice concept ... but not much use for me. I store all the theme in the SD card.

i have a PPC:PE and use the MS Theme Generator (v2) today plug in to change it every 20 mins. i must have 15-20 themes on my device.

i just wish they would have fixed that app instead of making this new one. the theme generator often loses it's settings.

Same here. It does the job - but it takes up 'today' screen space and is not ..... the most reliable of apps. :| However, when it works, it works well.

I agree, seems like this is redundant with the Theme Generator app. :?

Great App. A wonderful solution for those that don't want to:

1. Pay for anything to rotate their themes
2. Don't want to rotate themes manually
3. Don't want to store themes on their PPC
and/or
4. Don't like the MS Powertoy (kind of unreliable it seems to me.)
