With ePocrates for Pocket PC, you need to run the autoupdate file that is on the PPC 6700 itself. So (on your PPC 6700), go to Start ---> Programs ---> File Explorer. Navigate to the My Device directory (basically the root directory). Go to the Program Files directory. Then go to the Essentials folder. Then tap on the Autoupdate file. It is probably best to have a Wi-Fi connection when you do this because the database files are large and take time to install the first time.

Could anyone elaborate on the fix for this. If you are merely talking about clicking on the autoupdate file from my desktops hard drive........I tried that with no success.
- SPB Weather 1.1.1 works perfectly fine on 6700 now. Not sure which version was being used before. It still won't autoconnect to EVDO but will update when connected to PC. I think it might also update when IE forces EVDO to connect.
- Skype 1.2 works fine on 6700. It also will not attempt to autoconnect to EVDO, but if you start IE first and force the EVDO connection to start, then close IE and start Skype, it will work fine... at least it did on my phone. My friend installed skype but after starting skype he said it would crash after like 10 secs. Not sure what was different about his phone than mine, he had a lot more crap installed tho, maybe something conflicted.
Filemaker Mobile 7- installs but will not find handset in the configurations?? Runs on the handheld, but wont sync to any databases... Mobile 8 is coming out soon- says compatible with WM5.0
Mental Motions Multipad installs fine, but hangs when run. so.... in other words, it doesn't work.
Agile Messenger- Seems to work. When you put it in landscape mode, the chat screen gets cut off and you can't read parts of the sentences. that sucks... or in other words, it doesn't work! very well

Sorry to hear that but I have no issues whatsoever with iLauncher. I doubt you had to get a new phone because of iLauncher. Hard resetting it should have gotten you back to when you purchase the phone.
Pocket Express for the pocket pc does not work very well with the 6700. The customer serice department thinks like Microsoft.

We have offered to help them solve the problem. THe sports module is just full of bugs and inoperability. This program worked perfectly on the Treo 650. IT is far more useful than Action
Express, but Action Express works ok on the 6700
Before posting that an app doesn't work, please keep in mind that it may be a problem specific to your device, such as a conflict with another app, or just too much clutter on the device, or a bad install.
My suggestion would be to try the app once, then hard reset, then install again to confirm that infact the app is at fault.
It would be unfortunate if people refrain from buying software because someone's 6700 was messed up to begin with.
Do you want to be a little more specific? I am currently using IM+ w/o any issues. Only "feature" that is missing is that there is no notification sound when the device is turned off...I opened up a ticket with them and they apparently are working on it..
Pocket Hackmaster causes hickups in music playback in Windows Media Player and TCPMP. If you leave PHM running while playing music playback will be interrupted constantly throughout playback (giving the impression that there is a buffering issue). After I turned PHM of playback was smooth.
Not sure if anyone else had this issue.
