Just picked up a Samsung SPH-i700 last weekend, and I'm already missing the Palm Desktop Windows application pretty badly. For those that aren't familiar with Palm Desktop, it's a Windows program that duplicates all of the default applications that come installed on a Palm handheld, so that you can add/edit/delete stuff from your desktop system (nice big screen, nice comfy keyboard).

Anyway! Is there an application out there for the PocketPC that duplicates the environment provided by the Palm Desktop? Something I can run on my desktop machine to synchronize data, edit my contacts lists, etc., etc.?

Yeah, it's called MS Outlook and can be installed from the CD that came
with your Pocket PC.

You'll need active sync in addition to outlook. They should both be on the
cd's you got with the i700 (there are some other cool programs in there
also).

I used to use Palm Desktop for Clié, its stuck in a time warp (Claris
Organizer 1994)
MS Outlook is better in every respect.
