Is there a way to restrict access of a PDA during a synchronisation such that it can only synchronise with Mail (Calenders, etc) but CANNOT copy other files from the PC?
I never synchronize my PDA with mail/calendars/etc. I do, however, put files from my desktop onto an SD card which then fits into my PDA. Works great for taking documents with me to meetings without slaughtering forests. Doesn't work so great for keeping confidential info off my PDA. I think this has to be regarded as a policy/behaviour issue, and resists fixing by simple technical means. David Gillett
