[missing-sync-pocketpc-talk] The weel of death

[Bob Koss]

I asked the same question when attempting to copy a backup file from my
iPaq. The answer was that MS looks at the amount of free RAM memory
available and won't copy files larger than what's free in RAM. So fill up
your RAM, stick in a 1 G memory card, and it won't do you a bit of good as
MS can't copy to it (yet). The problem is being worked on.
