Does anyone know if there is somthing out there to sync a ppc (specifically an ipaq) with outlook's newsgroup thing. I mean that i want to sync my newsgroups onto my ppc for later reading, is this possible.

I haven't heard of something that does that. But you may want to look around Outlook's settings. There may be something in there.

I think there is a program that syncs newsgroups to your pocket pc, but not from outlook.. you'd have to configure the newsgroup on your pocket pc, etc...<br><br>i'm not sure of the url.... i'll try to find it for you.

Well thanks you guys are always pretty helpful. But there was somthing else i wanted to know too and forgot to ask. Is there anyway to browse the net on my ipaq through the usb cradle. I have tried many diffrent ways and none work. Do i have to get an ethernet card and run a proxy on my pc in order to do this?
