I do all kinds of stuff with it, but those are probably the most convenient. I don't know how I ever got by without it.

You have alot of patience to type a word doc on your PDA!

+1 on all he said except that.

How the heck do you set up remote desktop anyway? I've tried but I have no clue how to get it to work.

In a nutshell...

1: Enable it on your computer.
2: Set the port on your computer.
3: Forward the port to your computer (in your modem/router).
4: Make sure your firewall isn't blocking it.
5: Install the app on your phone.
6: Run the app on your phone.
7: Tell the app to connect to [ip address]:[port#]

no. tp2 has a 3.5mm headphone jack and tp has miniusb. i'm assuming u have at least 1 set of standard 3.5mm headphones somewhere... it's what's used on everything for decades.

My most important app is my Money (Spb Money) app. Both, my spouse & I, are using it and then syncing it with MS money on the desktop. Can't live without it. That's why we're WM all the way.
