calendar, and task list each time you attach the PC Connect cable to the
MobilePro 790 and the host PC.

Whenever possible Microsoft ActiveSync automatically translates
files and email attachments during synchronization. This allows you to use
the MobilePro to view and work with files created on your host PC with
Microsoft Word, Excel, and PowerPoint, among others.
However, as noted in the readme.doc file on the Microsoft ActiveSync CD,
PowerPoint files created or modified on the MobilePro are not translated
for viewing or modification on your host PC. This limitation does not apply
