Hi All

Please could someone tell me if i can open desktop word files on a windows mobile 6.1, ooofice mobile smartphone.

I'm looking into purchasing 20 IPAQ Data Messengers and i'm very interested in your thoughts if this is the right path to go down. We want to engage pupils on their terms and was also considering taking out these phones on contracts so kids can use them 24/7 even for voice calls and texts.

Any thoughts.

Cheers

Hi Leeg

As long as you save documents in Microsoft's version of open XML then you should be fine sharing docs between your Windows PC's and WinMob 6.1 devices.

See here for more info.

Just make sure that your devices come supplied with Windows Office Mobile!

In regards to your choice of device this very much depends on the objectives of using the technology, i.e. what outcomes you are seeking. You'll naturally need to consider what level of support will be available to teaching staff and how these devices may be embedded within learning and teaching practice.

If you're wanting to engage kids on their terms have you considered asking them what they'd prefer?

Cheers
