I struggled with this for a long time, but it turn out its quite simple to get Eltima SyncMate to talk to your T-Mobile Wing. This might be applicable to other Windows Mobile devices as well… I initially had trouble getting the program to ‘see’ my phone.It turned out the problem was with a bad setting on the phone itself. To correct it, go into Settings, then on the Connection tab click USB to PC. Make sure the box labeled Enable advanced network functionality is checked.One that is done, SyncMate should be able to ‘see’ your phone.Unfortunately, I spotted some other problems with SyncMate: 

• Groups within groups are not synced to the phone.
• Only one iCal calendar is handled
• Todo entries are not synced to the phone. 

On an optimization kick, I found SK Tools. It was able to find a free up about 12 megs of disk space, mostly by finding and clearing the IE cache. You could save yourself the money and just clear your cache yourself I suppose.

SK Tools does some other useful stuff though. Using its “Tune Up!” feature, you can tweak PIE to store its temporary files on your storage card, which will keep it from sucking up your fixed storage memory again. You can adjust the size of the font cache and other settings to tweak memory usage for performance, memory, or stability.

Lastly, there is a backup utility (with scheduling), a benchmark utility, system information page, and a registry editor.

The only real downside I can find is that the UI crams a lot of information into a tight space, and it suffers for it.

While I don’t think I’m willing to spend $13 on this tool (but I’ll let you know if I do), as neat as it is, its a pretty good bundle. I wish there was an open source tool like this.

After about a month and a half, my T-Mobile Wing has started to run out of free storage space. Whenever I searched the built in storage for large files, nothing ever turned up, but then I stumbled upon something: Missing Sync for Windows Mobile was putting all of my .cab files into /Windows/AppMgr/Install, regardless of whether I told it to put the cab on my storage card or not.

Quite a few of those cabs never got installed for whatever reason, so they were just sitting there, unused, taking us space. I just deleted them. So if you’ve ever installed cabs to your Windows Mobile device, but the program never got installed, check the /Windows/AppMgr/Install directory, they might just be sitting around taking up space.
