So our Cisco IT Essentials teacher tasked us with finding a specific open source / freeware app for our school-loaned HP WinMo 2003 PDAs. Since the class has to do with servicing and stuff with PCs, she told us to find something we can use "in the field". She said for an example if you needed to know how much space Windows Vista needed to be installed. I said I'd just use a browser and a search engine to find out that stuff...I hate to come to you guys but even though I can go about browsing apps I really can't find anything that would ever prove useful when solving an issue with someone's PC, or even think of what kind of program could help. /facedesk
I'd think a browser'd be efficient for any kind of information you'd need and no other application would help beyond that...

Calculator? Perhaps with b-B converter? (Extended?) USB storage capabilities? Software to light up the screen (I.e, white.bmp)? Bluetooth/WLAN diagnostics?

I know nothing of PDAs like that, just brainstorming.

The idea of any hi-fi system is to reproduce the source material as faithfully as possible, and to deliberately add distortion to everything you hear (due to amplifier deficiencies) because it sounds 'nice' is simply not high fidelity. If that is what you want to hear then there is no problem with that, but by adding so much additional material (by way of harmonics and intermodulation) you have a tailored sound system, not a hi-fi. - Rod Elliot, ESP

Windows Mobile 2003 comes with a calculator... what's a b-B converter? Go into more detail with these ideas of yours.

You just don't need one...

Maybe Notepad?

Umm... Browser..?

There's just nothing you need one for that I can think of.

There's the first problem

If she want's open source I'd go ahead and install linux on the device.

Couldn't you forward your mail using POP3 to the email feature of the PDA, and check your email on the PDA?
