Orange C500 under Linux

[Guest n2700177]

I am bored with WindowsXp and I have decided to experiment a little with Fedora 4.

I have searched the web a bit and I think that I have found a few utils to sync my Creative Zen Micro and my iPAQ Pocket PC under Linux, but unfortunatelly I haven't found anything to sync my Orance C500 smartphone. OK I assume that I should only be able to sync my contacts and perhaps browse the file system and possibly upload/download files ( a few CAB files i hope).

Has anyone tried connecting windows mobile under linux?

AFAIK there's no way to do it dude :o They're not visible as mass storage devices which sucks big time. The only thing I can do with it under Linux is charge it from a USB socket - I can't even do that in Windows without ActivePants installed

I have my c500 installed under core 4 using synce and multisync for sync with evolution (outlook 4 linux )

I used to have my e200 connected and using a "kio" slave for konquerer i could put files etc. on the phone

Search google for c500 synce linux. There is a french page explaining how to do it ( i translated it to english using the fish)
