Help - Communications software

First, let me thank everyone who contributed to this thread - it was very useful.

http://discussion.visorcentral.com/...ghlight=verizon

I have a Visor Prisim on the way. I also picked up a ThinModem Plus for landline access. The ThinModem comes with "One-Touch" email and Browse-it 2.00.

I also have Verizon national phone service and a Motorola 120c. I've ordered the cable from the Prisim to the 12c from SupplyNet so I have wireless capability.

Ive seen a number of communication software products discussed including Avantgo. Edora, and CoreSoft. I'll be regularly syncing with my windows notebook.

How about some recommendations along with pros and cons on communication software.

I also ordered a Matchbook Drive with a 128 Meg card so storage won't be a problem. give me your dream setup.

Thanks

Since you sync regularly, I would go with AvantGo. Not only will your selected content be updated each time you sync, but you will also have access to 1,500 handheld formatted sites via the AvantGo wireless page. And you can still browse most full size sites.

Also, AvantGo wins in one other way. Since it looks as though you are sharing this account with your phone, you are probably be on a wireless minutes packeage, with a finite number of free minutes. I have found that by using AvantGo to sync most of my info and only going for updates wirelessly (a sports score or stock price) I only use a small number of wireless minutes a month. It saves me money.
