Does anyone know if there is a stable, and freeware remote controller? The type you use for controlling the iPaq from your pc.

Just saw this one, not quite remote control but let you use desktop keyboard and mouse to input data to your Windows Mobile device via Activesync or tcp/ip and it's free.

It's worked fine for me with XP and W2K in both WM2003 and SE.

Bill,

I eventually got it installed and running, but it took an uninstall to achieve it. Being free, I guess you have to take it warts and all, but I find the graphics really awful. They are just about tolerable at 1x, but going to 2x and 3x it looks like one of those really ugly pixelised games of the 1980s. Your picture seems like it has excellent resolution which I presume is 1x?

Yeah, that's normal zoom. It really does look bad at higher zooms, and using 1280x1024 on my desktop makes it a little small to use. Still, when you go to 2 and 3 X, all you can do is make one dot = 4 dots, so I don't expect it to look good. If it were draw-based instead of pixel based, then I might complain ;)
