Hello,

is there a logical explanation (other than for instance that they forgot to
update some files in the OS) why on a WM5 Smartphone (such as the Qtek 8300)
it is comfortably possible to save, delete and *EDIT* IE bookmarks, while on
a WM5 Pocket PC (such as the Qtek 9000) it is JUST possible to save or delete
them ?

The latter is absolutely like on WM2003 Pocket PCs.

When I got the WM5 Smartphone (and still waited for the WM5 Pocket PC) I was
sure that MS had completely updated this functionality.

Just to find this was NOT the case.

Any MVP happens to know why ???

Outside of obvious UI differences, should a smartphone 2005 application run
on a 5.0 PocketPC ?
