                       Has anybody been able to successfully connect a VGX device to VISTA for development?
  The drivers seem to load, but the device is not "browseable" nor is it seen by "Mobile Device Center"
  Thanks, |

                      |  Yes, Mobile Device Center replaces ActiveSync.  ActiveSync (any version) is not used or supported on Vista. |

                      |  We're not using Vista, so don't have a lot of feedback for you.  I do know that some developers are using RNDIS and TCP/IP connections instead of ActiveSync for their development purposes. |

                      |  The topic for debugging without ActiveSync is here. We do not use Vista at this time but you can try the TCPIP method which should avoid the Mobile Device/ActiveSync issues. |

                      |  Sorry it took so long, but we've got it up.  If you need to debug against a CE 5.0 (or 6.0) device from a Vista machine, here's the process. |

                      |  Our product uses the active sync connection for administration.  Customers are asking us about Vista support -- Vista is coming whether we want to support it or not.  We bought a Vista machine, but the VGX doesn't show up via the Mobile Device Center.  Presumably, a piece of software would need to run on the VGX to service the connection like active sync.  Any thoughts? Links? Timelines for integration? |
