Please post your tablet make/model and the os version (vista/xp) and service pack as well as the palm software and version number. Beverly Howard [MS MVP-Mobile Devices]
From: anne on 13 May 2008 22:14 I have a Toshiba Portege, with Windows XP Tablet Edition. My old Palm was a Z22, and I could not sync it with my tablet. I kept getting error messages and was finally told by someone at Palm that it was not compatible with the tablet OS, so I abandoned it - since then I have hesitated to invest in a smart phone type of device for fear that it would not be compatible.

There are a huge number of windows mobile phone devices out there, essentially divided between the pocketpc phones (they use a stylus for screen input) and windows mobile smartphones which use keypad input only. While I am not a great fan of activesync in general, I have used it to sync a number of different windows mobile devices over the years. Beverly Howard [MS MVP-Mobile Devices]

What they told you, is not true. Simple as that. They don't know the tablet PC OS too good, so they're not supporting it - therefore they say it's not comaptible to be on the safe side. However, the error messages must have been specific to your problem and tablet PC OS installation. I am successfully syncing Treo 650 with Tablet PC edition of windows XP. -- /\ /\ [ Jakub 'Kocureq' Anderwald ] /\ /\ =^;^= [ [nick][at][nick].com ] =^;^= / | [ GG# 1365999 ICQ# 31547220 ] | \ (___(|_|_| [ kocureq(a)jabber.org ] |_|_|)___) |
