Description:

Key features:
- Full Backup of All text messages.

- Telephone a contact.
Instructions:
For Pocket SMS to work you must be connected via Activesync or, for Vista users, Windows Mobile Device Centre 6.1 (or better).
The software comes in two parts: the desktop Manager and the Pocket PC client. You must install the PocketSMS.Cab on your mobile device and the SMSManager.msi on your desktop. In addition if you have not already installed Compact Framework 3.5 on your mobile then run NETCFSetupv35.msi on your desktop to do the installation. You can download the Compact Framework here.
Note:
- The first time you connect, depending on the performance of your phone and the number of messages in your SMS folders, Pocket SMS can take quite a few minutes to "look" as if it's working ... be patient.
- Your Contacts can be downloaded by using File\Synchronise Contacts.
- You can view all the contacts by double clicking on "Contacts" in the view.
- You can create as many Distribution Lists as you like and Lists can contain more lists or people. You can drag and drop people or messages into any list.
Update Description:
v1.06:
- Takes some of the processing off the phone and moves it to the desktop so the performance is so much better.
