[missing-sync-winmobile-talk] Question

[Andy McMullin]

Hmm.

That's not my experience. A number of the things I'd like to use (for  
example Avant Go) come as a Microsoft .exe download because  
developers seem to assume that people using Windows Mobile devices  
also use Windows PCs. I've asked for a .cab -- we'll just have to  
wait and see if it can be released for us.

Like RIcky, this not a complaint against Missing Sync (a brilliant  
product now I've got it working thanks to the support team) but one  
against the short-sighted who make daft assumptions.

[Assume -- makes an ASS out of U and ME]
