Title: 3.5.2 Questions (wifi Sync, Sd Install)
Post by: madrak on February 26, 2005, 09:08:54 am

Hello all,

I just dusted off my 5500 and decided to play with it again.  Installed 3.5.2 Collie 64-0 Image and Wireless via Belkin Card and Router works like a charm (at least for pinging).

Installed Sharp Intellisync 1.43 on the PC.

Questions:

-Can I Sync via wireless to Outlook and if so, how? I really would prefer not to use the cradle.  Zaurus and Desktop are both on the same subnet.

-What changes should I make from the start to keep my root from filling up (I remember that being a problem last time.  Lardman mentioned uninstalling some apps and reinstalling them.  Which apps should I do that with, and how should I reinstall them in order to ensure they wind up on SD?  An example command line syntax or somesuch is what I'm looking for, not sure which installer to use, as I read many reports of problems.

-Any recommendations for things to try out?  I gather Opera is the recommended browser, Opie-reader the recommended reader.  Any other app recommendations or changes to make right after install?


Thanks!
