Chalk me up as one more seriously dissapointed PPC/OneNote user.
OneNote Mobile's sync functionality is pretty awesome, but you're right about the lack of dedicated Pocket PC features. I think if Microsoft combined the positive aspects of OneNote Mobile and Notes into one, we'd have a killer app on our hands.

I've tried to install the CAB but it says that is not a Windows CE application??? Any ideas. I have a iPAQ RX31115 with PPC 2003.
It should work.
But try this instead: open OneNote 2007, and select Tools > Options > Other > Install OneNote Mobile.
Any luck?
Hi Darius,
Well.. this was my first try. Got no luck. Thanks for the tip anyway.
It seems that it only works with Windows Mobile 5.0. Is that right?
Do you test it on PPC 2003???

Yup, just tested it, and it didn't work. I could have sworn that previous Office 2007 betas had a Windows Mobile 2003-compatible version of OneNote Mobile, but I guess Microsoft took it out - especially since it's far easier for them to ship a unified CAB to work on both Windows Mobile 5.0-based Pocket PCs and Smartphones.

I went ahead and installed it. It's like "Notes--". I might use it for the picture integration. I do like the new features of the desktop version however.
Microsoft, please finish this app! It could be so much better.

Yup, but without the ink support.

While it's a beta, it's likely to be feature complete. I don't doubt that Microsoft will still add or remove a few minor features here and there, but if I were to make an educated guess, I'd say the crux of it will remain the same.

I know what you are saying. But one thing gives me some hope--I just found what I'd consider to be fairly crucial feature in Onenote that isn't finished/working. Check out File / Send to / Blog. For me it doesn't do anything, and there is nothing at all in the help about it. Not only do I want that feature, the lack of it implies that they do still have a ways to go. Maybe there's time.
I've noticed that the lack of PPC support in ONM has shown up in a lot of blogs. Hopefully they will get the point.

No! it works with 2003SE ! You just have to install it manually.
the problem is that the .cab file seems not Compatible With 2003SE installer!
Just use Winrar to extract the content of the Cab on PC, then rename all the files according to the Setup.xml, then Copy all those files into PPC [any folder you like] and it will work.
In order to enable activesync, you also need to modify PPC registry according to the setup.xlm, soft reset then Viola! ONM runs on 2003SE!

Can you confirm that it also works with WM2003? That was the OS in question, not Second Edition - though it's nice to know it works with the latter, with some arduous extracting and renaming, of course.
