More mobility news!

Hi Hyeong Kim,

The Palm 700w does not have the "Messaging and Security Feature Pack" installed.  This is the reason why you cannot get all the new SP2 features yet.  You should get in touch with Verizon to see when Palm plans on releasing the device update for your 700w.

After Windows Mobile 5 enabled PPC/Smartphone(eg:Palm 700W) came out, it has been a nightmare for me.

- There is NO WM5 device that supports remote wipe. If I activate remote wipe, it stops delievering email but it does not wipe out the device.

- Exchange is still relying on SMS to send wireless active sync request to WM5 devices.
(How do I enable direct push?)

- Verizon is giving out CD that has verizon Wireless sync, which can be installed on a PC and push emails from the  PC to WM5 device. I have no idea who is using it and if I can remote-wipe that thing if the device is lost.

- There is no password expiration.

- I am considering deploying WM5 and get rid of Blackberry, but it requires technologies like Goodlink(for a good security). I already have a blackberry server and I don't want to support another messaging server. My exchange servers will be NLB/clustered and having non-redundant server is not good.


From a very frustrated exchange admin

Hi there, Neato solution but does anyone know if MS or anyone else will offer a push mail solution for WM2003 devices. Active sync works but its not ideal and can get costly.
