Microsoft Internet Explorer extentions

Microsoft Internet Explorer extentions:
The built-in Pocket Internet Explorer (PIE) is a basic webbrowser that it has a lot of limitations. Depending on the version of the program it may or may not have the ability for 128 bit encryption, there is no Java, Flash or Axtive-X and my all time best: no tabs, that is there can only be one instance of PIE at any time showing one address.
Luckily for us, some sites are optimized for mobile browsers and will provide it with data especially suited for the device's/platforms limitations. On the other hand, some sites will not even load on PIE, while others will have limited functionality. There are some alternatives for resolving the mentioned shortcommings of PIE.
There are some practical limitations that can be solved easily:
If you want more serious improvements, the following tools might solve your problems:
  • Microsoft Internet explorer tools
  • ftxpBrowser

Microsoft Internet explorer Tools

Microsoft Internet Explorer Tools for Pocket PCs is not another web browser as it names says, but it allows you to adjust Internet Explorer settings on your Pocket PC. You can enable/disable JScript support, as well as changing the amount of storage available for temporary Internet files.
Please be aware that this download is intended for English Windows Powered Pocket PC only.
This Power Toy allows you to:
  • Enable/disable JScript.
  • Set the maximum amount of storage used as cache for Internet Explorer's temporary files.
  • Remove Internet Explorer's temporary files from memory.

ftxPBrowser

ftxPBrowser is a small (less than 100kb) web browser utilizes the PIE engine and provides many features: tabs, allowing you to have multiple windows open at the same time and easily flip between them. Additional features include:
  • Ability to see pages in Full Screen
  • Simple View of any given web page (it re-configures the layout of the page to really fit in the screen's width. Very handy when trying to read a text on a web page that even with PIE's option "Fit to Screen" you have to use the bottom scrollbar)
  • Clear Type option
  • View Source option
  • Customizable hardware buttons for easier browsing
One thing that I find annoying is the fact that EVERY link or address entered, opens in a new tab. ...

Internet Connection Sharing with your laptop

Internet Connection Sharing with your laptop:
Laptop using PocketPC GPRS connectionWhile travelling with a laptop an internet connection can be very desirable. By using your Windows Mobile Phone as a access point, you can connect easily to the internet using GPRS or your regular internet service provider. It provides an easy way of sharing your internet connection with your laptop (also known as tethering) while the device still is capable of retrieving its own e-mail and RSS feeds.
This functionality was introduced with Windows Mobile 5 AKU3. Devices with older versions of the operating system depend on dial-up networking, which also works great.
The way you connect to a device has changed quite a bit across desktop operating systems. We have manuals for sharing your internet connection with the following operating systems:
