I finally received an error message from active sync which tells me that the m.google server does not support the software on my device after sitting waiting for ten minutes. But it did a couple of weeks back AND it also supported my use of all the google services without very long delays. Presumably some-one at Mountain View has pulled support for WM2003. At least I do get a normal search speed from Bing which is blindingly fast but I would rather have google back again. Even gmail is painfully slow. I have also discovered that similar speed problems occur using WM5 but oddly only using WiFi. Using GPRS still works fine and sync via active sync works very rapidly via both GPRS and Wifi. Can anyone explain please? John |
