PDA Controller

PDA Controller, by Universal Mobile Solutions, was designed for people who want to make best use of every dollar they spend. If you have a Pocket PC or Windows CE device that you later change for a Windows Mobile Smartphone, why should you have to buy the same product again? Why should you have to buy a product that does exactly the same thing but for a different type of device, say Sony Ericsson P800? With PDA Controller this is now possible.

PDA Controller lets you type comfortably from your desktop PC or laptop in two ways. First you can zoom the screen to twice it’s original size, secondly you can use the desktop keyboard so that you can type in quickly. This way you send off those quick e-mails or SMS messages without the annoyance of having to tap each letter at a time while squinting at the screen!

But that is not all you can do with PDA Controller! You can copy files directly to your device, delete and rename files. Copy to clipboard for easier typing. You can also create presentations when you are on the road by setting PDA Controller in screen only mode and fixed on top of your chosen background.

Features:

  • Zoom screen for better viewing
  • Type information on your PDA from your PC keyboard
  • Manage files and folders on your PDA comfortably from your desktop or laptop
  • Copy to and from clipboards of desktop or laptop to device
  • Remove standard windows frame so as to have only PDA screen visible
  • Force PDA Controller desktop or laptop screen on top of all other windows. This is necessary for presentations.
  • Capture screen activity to a video file in either one of three most popular formats, Apple Quicktime, Windows Media Format and standard AVI.
  • Take screen snapshots and save to a picture file.
  • Fine tune options for a wider range of device products, whether they are fast or slow, small or large, wide area network or locally connected to PC.

PDA Controller is available here for $20.00.
