@nazokiyoubinbou @in_sympathy Fortunately, all #PocketPC programs can be installed with a .cab file that you drop onto the SD card and then install on the #PDA itself.
You don't have to use the programs .exe installer on a computer.
So, I am hoping that we can find a way to, at the very least, sync PIM data like notes, calendars, address book etc.
Evolution provides an Outlook style program for the PIM data and SynCE, in theory, should allow the PDA to be mounted and sync this data.
Yeah. My new OS for #PDA stuff has arrived. Peak Microsoft
Does anyone know how to get a #PocketPC #PDA to mount and sync with #Linux?
Any information that I find is like 15 - 20 years old. It clearly used to be possible.
Simply plugging it in and lsusb in the terminal gives some pleasantly unexpected results even though it's not mounted or accessible for file transfers.
@maikel Constantly. I align task start inertia to ADHD and even PDA. Once I can get over the inertia to start, I can establish enough hyper focus to get that and often several other tasks done. It helps if they’re related/adjsvent but not entirely necessary. For me, getting to this state buoys my sense of possibly tackling things I felt were too daunting or had too many hurdles.
A newer version than previously published.
Here's my January update for PAWB
My first PDA was the first-generation Compaq iPAQ Pocket PC.
I had the Ericsson T39m as a phone, which was the first mobile phone with built-in GPRS and Bluetooth.
Had mobile web always at hand even in middle school, and Pocket PC port of SimCity 2000!
The Psion Series 3 was a pioneering personal digital assistant (PDA) released by Psion PLC in 1991. It was one of the earliest truly usable pocket computers, and it set the stage for many of the mobile devices that followed—including smartphones. (30 sec)

PDA/palmtop fans take note: someone's doing a PCMCIA equivalent of the PicoGUS/PicoIDE/PiSCSI/etc., a swiss army knife I/O device but specifically targeting low-power host devices like the HP 200LX, Newton, etc.

modern WiFi! Bluetooth! USB! sound! storage emulation! all the toys.
not sure how useful this will be for PowerBook people, but there were enough PCMCIA Ethernet cards that surely one of them was based on the NE2000 that PicoPCMCIA emulates?
Headlines like this always shock me, not because there's anything wrong them, but because it reminds me that families exist that all eat the same meal and it would only mean 1 pot to clean.
In my #AuDHD house there's a mix of #sensory food aversions, #ARFID, #Vegetarianism, #PDA etc., and all in all we have to cook approx 3 different meals for dinner, often using every pot in the house.
An encyclopedia reader, in case anyone still remembers it and needs it. Registration: any information.
Looks like that #PDA in the #MondayActionMovie last night was a Rolodex REX, from Franklin Computer. No data input ability, just let you view info synced to it from a Windows PC. In effect, a PCMCIA card with an LCD screen & a few navigation buttons.

The software is completely ready to use, just install and use.
