Windows Mobile Projects

Listening to Music Stored on your PC
There are two ways that you can use your Windows Mobile like a personal stereo:

  • Shared Directory - where the Windows Mobile device accesses a shared folder on your computer.
  • Streaming Music - not as difficult as you may think and means that you don't need to worry about an open share on your PC.

Using Bluetooth With Windows Mobile

Getting Console Access on the Terminal Services Client

Easily done using the Windows terminal services client, a little more difficult with the Windows Mobile version.
