Hi,

I have an iPAQ with a wireless CF network card. I also have a PC with a bunch of MP3 files. From my iPaq, I can get onto the PC folder where the MP3 files are stored using explorer, but I can't figure out how to get Windows Media Player on the iPAQ to open the folder so I can play the MP3s.

Anybody got any ideas?
 
I haven't tried it , but I kind of doubt that you will be able to play the files without first copying them over to your pocket pc. You would need quite a bit of bandwidth and a sizeable buffer which I can't see the pocket pc being able to hande to stream and play music over a wireless connection to a pocket pc.

Hope that helps!
