New wifi PPC, what software do you suggest?

[benzo]

Hi,

I've upgraded from my SPV C500 windows mobile phone to the SPV M2000 (aka XDAII)

I basically want to know what integral software do you think I will need to really improve my ppc experience.

I am certain that I will need a file explorer, a task manager, a pdf viewer and wifi managing software.. any suggestions for the mentioned and possibly more?

Thanks in advance.

Thanks for all the info!!

I am so excited about my PPC- especially the wifi aspect and the fact that I'll be able to read my pdf journals without having to lug around a huge wad of papers!

I used to use avantgo back in the day on my visor edge, so it'll be nice to resume that habit.

Thanks again!

You may need to run your PDF files thru the ActiveSync 'reflower' Adobe plug-in, so that all PDF files can be reflowed on your PDA screen - this is essential on a QVGA screen.

Alternatively, you'll need RepliGo.

dont get too excited about avantgo, many of us are on the verge or already have removed it. they recently released an 'upgrade' that was very dissappointed. search the forums for the posts. theres actually a thread near the top, plus the one that was created when the upgrade was released.
