Microsoft Updates the Windows Mobile Web Site
Microsoft has given the Windows Mobile site a bit of a scrub and polish, adding a new "What is Windows Mobile?" section and refining a few of its existing pages into a more user-friendly format. Check it out today as you engage in one of your aimless browsing runs.

Downloads
It's much easier to find your way around now that those links to download things like ActiveSync 3.8 are so well, err, well you know, I can't see them any more.
I can download 4.1 if I want, but the old more downloads link seems to have gone awol.
Are MS having problems affording the bandwidth?

I love the new home page graphic...
"And the genie said you have two wishes left."
"Yes, It's a Windows Mobile Palm."
And the second wish would be....Can I have more memory pleeeese?

No, no, no, that violates the Genie Code of Wishes Conduct. It's just not allowed. :lol:

Thanks. Though to be fair, I was referring to the fact that the route to that page is rather,err, well hidden. Can you give me the route you used to get there - unless it was via a search :?

I dont think the new site is user friendly at all. Just the opposite. I used to frequent the "Help and How To" section. You used to be able to go there and click on pocket pc device, smartphone etc. and get a full list of articles. Now I have to goto the site map to see the ppc contents of help and how to.

You can go to Accessories & Add-ons > Download ActiveSync 4.1, then near the bottom of the page, there's a link titled, "For all other languages, the latest version available is ActiveSync 3.8.".
