i'm an italian newbie
I have a kentron kerd 300. What is it? seller tells me it is an ebook reader, but really is a pocket pc based on win ce 5.0 with an arm processor. It really qworks fine for me ( i'm a great eater of books), but i want to use it only for taking notes. and this is the matter.
i ca use virtual keyboard on it, but i would prefer free hand writing, or painting. but i have found nothing useful or that can be instaklled on it.
may you help me?
thank you in advance
regards luigi

Without using the WMC, just the device itself, can you see/access anything on the device, or does it only run the eBook software?

I guess what I meant is can you see those folders and the programs within them? What applications are in the "programs folder?"

Sounds like you are in good shape. Try downloading and installing to the "programs folder" one of these:

DNOTE: http://en.derago.com/categories/4-Producs
SCRATCHPAD: http://www.phatware.com/index.php?q=page/embed/press/pr010731.html (part of the Calligrapher install, but a separate executeable utility)
JZPAINT: http://www.pocketpcfreeware.com/en/index.php?soft=575

Those are some of the smallest and simplest programs that will allow direct screen entry...

Glad one of them worked. Dnote is a desktop installer program...you have to run it from the desktop first, and then get the cab file from the activesync folder and install it.
