Hey all,
writing this from bed on my shiny new wireless ipaq! :)
Just wondering if there is any software that allows me to just plug my ppc into a usb port (with my Targus roll-up cable) and browse it (no drivers on pc). Just like a USB thumb drive.
I used to be able to do this on my Palm with a program called CardExport.
Any suggestions?
I'm using an HP iPaq 5450...
Thanks in advance! :)

You could always carry around a separate USB SD reader with the Pocket PC, although it's not exactly an elegant solution.

Some folks on another board (treocentral) were able to request this app for the treo (was already a version for the PalmOS) and the developer responded with a new version. This app works great and would be a dream on the PPC (movies, mp3, etc.) I wonder if we could get together a group request that might prompt them to code a ppc version. I realize it would be infinately more complex with a different platform and all but I personally would buy a copy for each device I own as I bet many others would. Opinions?

consider FTPserv
this creates a mini FTP server on PPC and could be accessed from any internet connection* this is a maybe option. It has never been used by me and I don't think it operates over USB
