When the Mac is used to load files onto a SD card (for example) there are no 
2nd "shadow" ._xxxx file visible when the card is THEN viewed on a PC or 
particularly on the Pocket PC.  Even when choosing "show hidden files."  Only when 
a FOLDER is copied, then a ._DStore  file will be added for each FOLDER but 
NOT for EACH  and every FILE as has been stated here.  That's absolutely wrong.  
And is claiming  as if its a result of using the Mac with Pocket PC.  It just 
doesn't happen.   Only using MissingSync puts them on the card!  Same thing 
loading any data on Pocket PC using VPC with the Mac,  NO 2nd ._ files added.  
They may be resource fork files but are only added to Pocket PC's and made 
visible with Missing Sync.
