$10 Off Plus! Digital Media Edition With A New Pocket PC
If you've recently bought, or are planning to buy, a new Pocket PC 2003 device, check this out: Microsoft is offering a $10 rebate off of their Plus! Digital Media Edition, thereby bringing the price down to $9.95. (Unfortunately, it's only available in the US...)

I bought it at Costco for $7.99 after a mail-in rebate.

I got it from Amazon for $19.95 with a $20 rebate.  Good thing, too, since I never use it. It seems to have great difficulty syncing over a wireless connection (never recognizes that the PPC is connected), and everything else in the package is junk. :roll:

You can't. The way the dimwits at Microsoft designed it is so you would NEED to dock with your PC. Thats my major beef. These things have not had a real need to doc all of the time since wireless networks came out. 90 percent of my avantgo syncs come across my WiFi Network. Active Stink SUCKS of course, we all know this.
