Assuming you have no other utilities installed: Start, Programs, File Explorer, Open...

\\servername\share

That should do it...

Oh, and AFAIK you can't set up a share on the Pocket PC...

You may have to futz with the connection manager setting to get both local and internet connectivity going at the same time if you are on PPC2002. Haven't messed with the 2003 'New and Improved' connection manager much.

That's a fact. You are limited to establishing an ActiveSync connection via the wireless link and then you can do whatever you could do with the USB/Cradle, i.e Explore from AS, but only from the partner machine.
