I sync via 802.11b in my 5455 and as far as I can tell Journal Bar only updates when I manually start it over WiFi. Is this something that can be addressed in later updates?? It would be MUCH better if Journal Bar updated over WiFi ActiveSyncs the same way it does over wired ones. Thanks!

I'm not sure but it may be like that so its not hogging the bandwidth for IE or any other thing you may have going on while wireless. Plus if the card isnt doing anything ie updating Journal bar, some have a setting that saves batteries. I may be wrong but I think its better to allow journal bar manually when I'm using my wireless, rather than having it update and suck the juices from my batteries. LOL

Bearjaw, isn't it the point of having wireless that your PPC is automatically updated. If you want to save battery life, switch it off.

I agree that a simple option to sync wirelessly every hour or so would be nice. If all you had to do was check a box for that option to engage it, perfect. If you wanted to do the manual update format option then you could do that as well.

I have wireless and could go either way on it.
