Microsoft Money for Smartphone?
Is Microsoft Money (I am using Money 2005 on my PC) available for smartphones (specifically the SMT5600)?
I looked at the Microsoft site and found nothing, just wondering if there is 3rd party s/w that would sync my desktop Money file to my smartphone.
Forgive me if this has already been discussed, I did try the search function for my question, but couldn't find anything.
Thanks,
~Rob

Microsoft doesn't have a pocket version of money - that I am aware of. However, I haven't really looked. I don't know of any 3rd party solutions either, although once again, I haven't really looked. I know that there are some money management applications for the Smartphone, but I don't know if they talk with Money.
Hrm, All that just to say - no idea. :lol:

There are financial solutions for the phone...but none of them SYNC with money during ActiveSync. Which makes me not want to use ANY of them.
Why'O'Why doesnt Microsft make an app that will sync automatically! I'd just like Microsoft to answer that question. Even if it's:
"No, and the reason is....."

But...maybe some developers that make excellent PPC versions like SPB Finance will come to the rescue.

I see that the newest SPB Finance supports Windows Mobile 5. It also states that it syncs with Money (assumedly without exporting/importing .qif files)
http://www.spbsoftwarehouse.com/products/finance/?en
On the top right of the webpage above, under requirements, Windows Mobile 2003 is listed as an option. Being a noob to smartphones, would that mean my SMT5600 could use this? Or is Windows Mobile 2003 different than the smartphone (ie is it what is loaded onto a Pocket PC phone?)

It's not a different Windows Mobile 2003. It's just that SPB has not been specific enough. They mean Windows Mobile 2003 Pocket PC.
They only have an application or 2 for the Smartphone and unfortunately, neither one is their Finance application.

I noticed that as well. That's why I am skeptical that this would work on the smt5600.
Oh well, I'll keep waiting (as I try to remember patience is a virtue)
