Book Description
Pocket PC: Visual QuickStart Guide is aimed squarely at the 3 million Pocket PC users (expected to be 6 million by the end of 2003) who don't take full advantage of their Pocket PC PDAs because, with little or no documentation, they simply don't know what the devices are capable of doing.

In this visual, task-based reference, C. P. Collins and Tracy Brown help readers get up to speed quickly on everything they can do with their Pocket Pcs--checking multiple email accounts, synchronizing with popular business applications, connecting to large-screen monitors for presentations, downloading radio shows and audio books, playing games, recording TV shows, even using them as universal remotes! Experienced users will be amazed at what they didn't know about these popular devices, and novices will soon be taking advantage of the communications and multimedia capabilities at their fingertips. Straightforward, step-by-step instructions combined with loads of visual aids make this Visual QuickStart Guide the fastest, easiest route to Pocket PC proficiency.
