This free application will allow you to explore the content of your Windows Phone directly from your computer, through a WIFI connection without installing any client software on the computer! All you need is to open your web browser, and type the IP address of your phone (which is displayed on your phone screen). You will then be able to browse your data, pictures, and music and send files from your computer to your device. You can see pictures and listen music on your computer directly from the web interface.

It also features a registry editor, for people who like to tweak their Windows Mobile device.

Internet Explorer (6, 7 or users on Windows XP or Vista (with .net framework 3.5 sp1 installed) or Windows 7 (.net framework 3.5 sp1 already included) will be able to browse their pictures from a 3D XBAP (XAML Browser Application) / WPF (Windows Presentation Foundation) based user interface (as seen on the screenshots below).

WIFI Remote Access Screenshots





Beta 5/Release candidate (2009/12/09) :

-Added a feature to check for updates. No more expiration date!
-Added the ability to distinguish WIFI and USB networks from other networks. Shows WIFI signal strength (signal strength indicator doesn't refresh automatically in this version).
-Added the ability to enable automatically the server when the application is launched, and added the ability to display a link to the registry editor in the main menu (disabled by default)
-Changed the way to prevent device from sleeping. Now you can push the power button and the application should continue to run (it will auto disable and go to full sleep after 10 minutes of inactivity in order to save battery power). This feature doesn't work with every device.
-Alphabetic sorting is now more natural: (i.e : "File1", "File2", "File10" instead of "File1", "File10", "File2").
-Fixed a bug in the XBAP app when running on Windows XP where the pictures took a very long time to display in the 3D gallery.






the WIFI Remote Access free for Pocket PC

An interesting app, to be sure santod. Will have a look at this.

Of course, it doesn't help when away from home and your WiFi network, and as far as I can see won't allow me to access my home PC from my TP2 when I'm away from home, but I imagine there are many other useful ways to take advantage of this app.

This will work away from home, anywhere you have wifi access. Just providing another option for those that can use it for its purposes.

You could also check out Kinoma Play, with it's SkyBox add on.

Interesting - is this WiFi connection one- or two- way? That is, you can access the Phone from your PC, but can you access your PC from your Phone?

I've never heard of SkyBox; will do some searching.

Kinoma also has a bundled Orb application, which works pretty well for sending files back and forth.

Here's some details on Box.net through Kinoma. No, I don't work for Kinoma. I just think they have a pretty well put together application.

Also, just by signing up in Kinoma Play you get a gigabyte of cloud media storage — free! — to use however you like, with Kinoma Play, your PCs, or both. That’s enough space for over 250 songs, or over 3,000 2MP photos!
With the Box.net app you can do things like:

• Upload your favorite songs for anytime, anywhere streaming
• Create photo albums in the cloud — it’s your own personal Flickr!
• Play podcasts and videos without using valuable space on your phone
• Easily move media between your phone and PC
• Share files and folder with friends

Sign up and claim your free gigabyte of cloud storage!

It’s super-easy, and takes just seconds:

• Go to Apps > Box.net

• Click Sign Up to enter your email address and choose a Box.net password

That’s all there is to it! You’ll receive a confirmation email from Box.net with more info about the service.
Upload media from your phone

Uploading music, podcasts, video and photos from your phone to Box.net is a breeze — just choose Media > Send > Box.net.

Uploading other kinds of media works exactly the same, and (as you can see) is just as easy:

You can upload media to Box.net as a convenient way to transfer it to your PC, make a backup of irreplaceable photos (even if there’s no PC in sight!), and share with friends and family.
Download media to your phone

Downloading is just as simple — play anything from your Box.net account, and choose Media > Download.

Kinoma Play will let you choose whether to store it on the phone itself or your Storage Card.
You can download media from Box.net as a convenient way to transfer it from your PC, get a local copy of your media for flights and other situations where you won’t have network access, and to get files dropped by friends and family into one of your Box.net shared folders.
Create, Delete, Share and Unshare folders

A great feature of the Box.net app is that you can do most folder management tasks right from your phone! For example, here’s the default set of folders you get when you sign up:

To create a new folder, open the menu pod to show the Box.net application menu…

…choose New Folder, give it a name and let Box.net know if it should be public.

From the screenshot you can see that mine is private, but after you create a folder you can always privately share it with friends and family.

Enjoy!

Box.net comes installed, so you can find it in Apps and as a standalone icon on a Home screen.
Try it out, and we think you’ll agree that Kinoma Play is the best way to Box on mobile.
