Anyone have any idea how the buttons on the Cingular 3125 would treat this software?

[Mike Temporale]

I'm not sure what you mean? It will work on the 3125. The normal keypad layout won't make a difference. Are you talking about mapping the side buttons or front buttons?

[Jason Patterson]

orion,

Excellent question. We have our "gen_wmhost" plugin which (should) replicate all behavior that usually targets WMP, to target Pocket Player instead. The plugin is used with things like Bluetooth remote controls to Microsoft Voice Command.

We would recommend trying out the trial version of Pocket Player and install that plugin as well. We hope to eventually have full support for that device's buttons and display.
