I have 2 Handspring Visor Deluxe PDA and have been frustrated with my inability to have identical information on both PDAs (one for me and one for my wife). Even though I set both PDA with identical user names, I am unable to share the information so that my wife's PDA and my PDA are identical in address, to-do list, calendar, etc....

I continue to get an error message everytime that I sync both PDA to the same desktop. I contacted PALM and they said it wasn't possible.

I am considering buying the Dell AXIM with windows hoping that it can accomplish my goal.

Please help w/ advice on how to make this happen w/ current PDA or if I should buy Dell Axim to accomplish this goal...

Thanks

Anthony

You can sync as many Pocket PC based Pda's to one PC that you want as long as they all have different names (not owner names but actual PDA names).
In fact it is much easier for all PDA's after the first one as you usualy don't have to reinstall apps to get them on subsequent PDA's just check the boxes off for the software you want from within Add/Remove programs.
