Pocket
PC Newsgroups |
The
official newsgroups about Pocket PCs hosted by Microsoft are
an invaluable resource both for beginners who want to discover
the potentialities of their new devices and for experts willing
to learn every secret of their mobile hardware and software.
In these newsgroups Microsoft
MVPs (Most Valuable Professionals) offer their expertise
and advice to help users in their daily technical problems.
There are also some language specific newsgroups and I like
to participate actively in the Italian
one.
Be sure to read the Rules
of Conduct if you want the experience in the newsgroups
to be pleasant and profitable both for you and for all the
other users.
