Does Virtual PC work with iPaq?

Dec 31, 2005 2:56AM PST

I wonder if someone can help. I have a Powerbook, and an iPaq. I need to synch them. I've tried using third part software. PocketMac is a disaster, don't touch it with a bargepole. Missing Sync is better, and let's me synch basic organizer data. But it's still very difficult to sync everything, load music on my iPaq and so on. So my question is: if I buy Virtual PC for my Mac, would then let me sync the two devices seamlessly? Has anyone tried this? I want to be able to load music and programmes on my iPaq from my Mac.

If it doesn't work, I may end up junking my Apple and buying a PC laptop, which would be a shame... but my iPaq is central to my existence!

My Powerbook uses OS 10.3.9 and my iPaq is an Rx 3115

Advice greatly appreciated.

You might want to try an email to MS regarding the use of VPC with the iPaq.
VPC is not particularly good, P2 @ 600Mhz, but it "might work"

Sorry I can't be of any further help. Which came first, the Powerbook or the iPaq??
