Default Logbook Pro for Pocketpc?

Anyone use it on their pocketpc? Curious on how you like it? Have the
desktop version.

Avoid it like the plague. I have the desktop version also and it seems
to work pretty good. The Pocket PC version cannot be made to work. I
have a Dell Axim X5. The Logbook Pro people blame it on Active Sync not
being compatible. I have gone round and round with the company. It is
a very poorly written program as they make you rigidly follow these
convoluted installation instructions. And then when it doesn't install
right they just claim you didn't follow the instructions properly. Go
to the link below and read about the problems people are having. I have
gone thru all their help avenues and never got it to work even once.

Look for Aloft at http://www.Skymarktechnologies.com and I think you'll be
happy. It's a full functioning version for the pocketpc unlike the limits
Logbook pro imposes.

I too had issues with logbook pro on the handheld and that is what led me
to Aloft.

No. However Aloft has a logbook program for the PC as well. They also
have demo software so you can try it out and see if it's for you.

Price is also right.
