Ever needed to get restore a specific file from a Activesync Backup , well now you can with STGViewer .

“You can use the standard Copy/Paste operation to extract the files to the pointed location in Explorer window. Or you can use ‘restore files to’ command to restore the files to given directory.

It is a ‘green’ software, need not install, nothing write to registry.

It is small and swift without MFC dll support.

It is alpha version now, but it is enough for your using. ”

Jared Miniman from Pocketnow has written a review on the Presenter-to-go which is a CF type II card which acts as a VGA out card allowing you to show presentations.

Jared overall impression:

“Certainly, for Visor users, PTG is an amazingly innovative device! However, for us picky Pocket PC users, we have three competing products to choose from, so our standards are quite high. Though the PTG print driver is innovative and useful in certain circles, for $199, I would expect better software and/or support for NTSC/PAL and S-Video output. Both FlyJacket (for the same price) and Voyager CF (for $25 less) support it; MARGI needs to throw a little more value into PTG before I can consider it as highly as the aforementioned competitors. Give MARGI time to improve the software and allow Conduits to develop support for PTG; by that point, I’m sure I’ll think more highly of the product. MARGI is a leader in presentation solutions. I expected quite a lot from PTG but walk away unimpressed.”
