Turn Your Phone Edition On And Off Automatically
If you've got a Pocket PC Phone Edition, there may be times when you don't want the phone to be turned on, like at night or during your weekly staff meetings. Even though turning the phone radio off is a pretty simple thing to do, you can make sure that it's turned off and on at the right times with an application from SlipStream Solutions called mPhoneSchedule.
"mPhoneSchedule allows you to set a day-by-day schedule to turn your Pocket PC phone on and off at predetermined times." Features include:
� Turning phone on and off at predetermined times each day � Phone PIN unlock option � No need to unlock your Pocket PC � Single-click configuration for an entire week � Easy to use menu
You do need Microsoft .NET Compact Framework on your Phone Edition. You can grab a free 15-day demo version or the full version for only $8.99 from the Handango site

Darned... I got excited thinking this software would let me schedule on/off time for the "ringer." My mobile phone has replaced my landline, so I like to leave it on all night in case I need to make an emergency call during the night. But I don't want to be awakened by someone calling the wrong number late at night. Currently I manually change profiles on my 6315, but I don't always remember.... Joe

Joe,
Check out http://zendrui.free.fr/ for a tool called PocketZenPhone. Its actuallly written for the XDA 1/2 but recently there were some reports indicating that it works well on the ipaq too. It does full profile management including scheduled switches etc.
You can also get more information at : http://forum.xda-developers.com/view...?p=58724#58724
Beware, its long! Hope this helps.

I use MeetingMute by PocketConcepts ( www.pocketconcepts.com) for that - it reads appointments from your outlook calendar and mutes the pda / phone during specified appointments (as determined by categories). I have a "Mute Phone" category, so all I do is mark an appointment as a member and meetingmute takes care of the rest.

I have been using Phone Today from www.burroak.on.ca
Does this same scheduler thing but also has some other features that make it much easier to use by XDA II. Nice piece of software - my favourite of the bunch.
