Hello there.
I've just won a Jornada 720 on eBay for the reasonable price of £38, and I just had a few queries.
Apologies if this is the same old stuff that all people new to HPC2000 ask, I tried browsing the forums
but there only seems to be one page of threads. Nevermind, I wasn't looking at my screen hard enough
Here are my questions; will the bundled version of Internet Explorer work with social networking sites? I ask only because my girlfriend's laptop can't go online, and she likes to check up on her internet stuff in the morning
(she has to use her phone's internet... eek!
). I suppose the mobile versions will work just fine, no?
My second question, and this has a lot to do with everything really; I understand that there is an MSN client usable on the 720 called Microsoft Portrait. I do not have a sync cable for my 720, nor a cradle and certainly no IR port. I have this iMac and a heavy server upstairs with Windows 2000. My thinking is that I could just host a .cab file on my FTP server and download it using the integrated modem, but if it's anything Microsoft have made, it'll be one of those horrible installers that require connecting the handheld to the actual PC itself. Is there a place where I can get .cab files and just... download them straight onto the handheld?
Finally, probably one of the most asked questions of all time; will Doom run on this thing? I understand that it is possible, and I have seen a page where you can download the game engine, but I'm unsure of any .dll's I will need to run it. If there's a little archive somewhere full of files I could just download over a dial up connection, it would be greatly appreciated
Sorry again for asking generic and probably simple questions, I'm just a bit lost. I'm used to WinCE 1.0
