Hello Everyone,
I recently aquired a Velo 1 running Windows CE 2.0. I need to synch with my PC, but the only Explorer for handhelds on all the download sites is 1.1, for use with CE 1.0, which is not compatible. I was told that I need Active Sync. Can anyone out there provide me with a link to download this thing so I can link my PC with my Velo unit? I appreciate any help you can give me.

Hi there and thanks for the link. I downloaded ActiveSync, followed the instructions, plugged in my Velo 1, and the connection box appeared. It checked my Com 1 port, Com 2 port and ISB. All three it said my device was not detected. In addition to this, now my Velo 1 wont shut off at all. The power stays on all the time, even after disconnecting the cable to the PC. So far this is a nightmare. I thanks you for your link again, but can you help me with the connection problem and with shutting my unit off? I appreciate your help!

I'm not sure about the sync issue, but you may want to press and release the little reset button (top right on the keyboard) and see if you can get the unit to come back to normal.
