If you are using a PocketPC 2002 device and ActiveSync 3.5, then you can take advantage of ActiveSync's new 'Pass Through' connection feature. The 'Pass Through' connection allows your PocketPC to directly share the internet connection from your desktop, thus allowing the use of internet-based applications on your PocketPC (e.g. Pocket Internet Explorer, email apps, ftp apps, etc.). To configure 'Pass Through' connection goto ActiveSync, Tools|Options, select 'Rules' tab, and then modify the 'Pass Through' connection section.
