Hi Duncan,

Actually yes, you can sync your iPAQ with your PC. If you have tried this
and failed, try going to Settings>Connections tab>Connections ICON and
choose the advanced tab. Then choose Network card. Make sure your Origo
card is set for "Work".

Hit ok for everything.

Now open activesync on your Pocket PC. and hit the sync button. If it
doesn't work, make sure that under the tools>options menu you have the
right computer chosen

Hope this helps
