REX 3 syncing on Win CE 2.0 palmtop (off topic)

[Esmonde]

I know this is slightly off topic but since Starfish and Sidekick are intimately involved I hoped someone here might either have an answer or be able to suggest where to go.

I have a Franklin Rex 3 organiser. This is a PCMCIA card sized PDA which was originally a Starfish product and which uses Truesync to sync Sidekick data from a PC either via the PCMCIA slot or a plug in Serial cradle.

Here's the question. I read that it was planned to allow this syncing to work with Windows CE HPC handhelds too. I know that Hewlett Packard implemented it for some of their laptops but can't find any reference to it being an option on other handheld WinCE machines like my Phenom Express.

Thanks,
Roy Esmonde

Dear Esmonde

You have probably gone here already but it is a Help page For Rex Users By Rex Users'

http://www.rex6000.org/

Good Luck

Thanks Jim,

I had a look but I'll check it out again. I think my original question was really quite stupid. I thought it would be terrific to plug my REX 3 into the Phenom Express and sync contacts. Only problem is the Phenom won't run Sidekick 98. So it's a no go anyway.

Regards,

Roy Esmonde

Actually Esmonde the Computer/Handheld does not need to be running Sidekick AFAIK.
Trusync is a method of synchronising Files of any type and Starfish is pushing it as a method of Synching Handhelds so keep looking at that site I gave you and RexCentral too as they will surely know about it if it is possible.
Good luck
Jim
