Is there a tutorial somewhere I can study to learn how to migrate all my data from my Palm Tungesten E (Palm OS) to a PPC 6700 (Windows Mobile OS)?

Thanks,
Paul

I went from the Treo 650 to the PPC-6700 which is a similar transition. If you mean data as in contacts and calender then I just changed my hotsync to go into microsoft outlook then Activesync'ed, which transfer the contacts from outlook.

Here is the tutorial: http://www.palm.com/us/support/outlooksupport.html

Hope that helps

Perfect. Thanks Jon.

Now I'm wondering if I really want to transfer everything en masse. If I do it manually, then I will have an opportunity to prune all the old obsolete stuff. For the case of contacts, it's probably good to prune. But for the calendar, I might want to keep all the history there. The problem is I use a program on Palm called Datebook 5 which allows me to do "floating todos". I'm not sure if that thing is supported on pocket pc. I have a lot of them and they go out way in the future... Looks like I have a lot more research to do. :)
