USB SynCE to pair your Linux device with Windows Mobile

By James Kendrick | Tuesday, September 5, 2006 | 8:03 AM CT | 2 comments |

It seems like everybody is playing with Ubuntu or some other flavor of Linux these days and with a new package those open-sourcers can now sync those boxes with Windows Mobile devices.  Mobile Gadget News has posted some instructions for fellow Linux users who need to sync up with a Windows Mobile device via USB.  They promise instructions for syncing via Bluetooth in the future so hold them to it.

  • This project has a long way to go, obviously. :(

    It’s a shame, because Palm support is fantastic. My treo has been synching with various linux distros for years. No setup required.

    Let’s hope more WinMob developers get a painless synch for devices soon.

  • Aaron, it all depends on what you want to do with your device and Linux. If you want to manipulate the files on your device as if it were a mounted volume, this does the trick. If you want to be able to install apps and synchronize with Evolution, then yes, I agree that it’s a work in progress.

    I’m curious, are you able to do these things (install programs and synch with a PIM) with your Treo in Ubuntu?
