Displaying Pocket PC Screens on Your PC


One function that can be quite handy for use with the Pocket PC is a desktop PC viewer/controller. What these utilities do is allow you to see and control your Pocket PC from your desktop pc. You can use your keyboard to enter data or write reports. You can use your mouse to point and click. Well, a secret to some is that Microsoft has a Free Powertoy that lets you do just that! Remote display control for Pocket PC lets you control your Pocket PC from your desktop.
O'Reilly Wireless Devcenter has posted a short tutorial for Displaying Pocket PC and Smartphone Screens on Your PC. That will come in handy for getting things all set up and running.
"Installing Remote Display Control on the Pocket PC
Once the Remote Display Control is downloaded and installed on your PC, and Pocket PC through ActiveSync, you should be able to find it in the Programs folder on your Pocket PC. The application name is cerdisp. Tap it and follow through the introductory screen. Click on the Connect button to start the display (see Figure 1). "

I prefer to use the venerable freeware, rCE. The nice thing about rCE is that it initiates the communications from the PC side. That means I fire up rCE on my desktop and away I go. There's no need to start a program on the PPC side.

Looks like a good app...I've been using Pocket Controller Pro for a few years now. It's not freeware, but does a really good job.
