]]> Comment on Windows Mobile annoyance – Can’t dismiss reminders by Matt Williams http://www.beauvais1.com/archives/2007/02/02/windows-mobile-annoyance-cant-dismiss-reminders/comment-page-1/#comment-11782 Matt Williams Fri, 04 Apr 2008 16:12:54 +0000 http://www.beauvais1.com/archives/2007/02/02/windows-mobile-annoyance-cant-dismiss-reminders/#comment-11782 I read your solution, I hope this fixes this problem for me. My phone has been doing this off and on for several weeks, and driving me nuts! It seems to only do it when I don't have it set to vibrate-only. I have had time-synchronization turned on for quite a while, but I just turned it off and will hope for the best. I had tried soft-resets to no avail, and have no desire to do another hard reset (had to do one a few weeks after installing Pocket Music) and have to start from scratch.

When this commercial comes on... it doesn't matter where he is in the house or what he is doing, He comes running! I know he wants the notebook but the music is so inviting to him =) My husband, My son and Myself all turn it up and just laugh when we here him throw his remote to his game down or run out of the bathroom or anywhere.......just to see the commercial.. I looked everywhere to find the artist to the song and finally found it ... I'm downloading it as I write this comment. I hope it is the right song because i'ts one thing that makes him smile...He just glows when the song is playing! I think the only thing he would like even better is the notebook itself..haha Thank you, Diane I have a son with autism.

They had some ideas in the works which would be really nice, but the company decided to focus on its routing engine to license to other companies. Software like MS Live Search or Google Maps will eventually replace Mapopolis on my devices, but it's still my favorite for navigating in unfamiliar areas for one reason: text-to-speech spoken directions. With Mapopolis I can listen to the directions without taking my eyes off the road, which is invaluable in unfamiliar areas where I need to watch out for turns and can't afford to look away to focus on the little screen. Even after the online-based software offers spoken directions, I'll still keep Mapopolis around in case I'm driving somewhere without a signal for use with the data connection. Enjoying your new <a href="http://www.mobiletechreview.com/phones/HTC-Mogul.htm" target="_blank" title="Review of the Sprint Mogul" rel="nofollow">Mogul</a>? I kinda wish Verizon would release this model on their network, but then I'd be "forced" to upgrade and find a home for my XV6700. ;-) Really, I just want Windows Mobile 6 because of its Exchange 2007 integration.
