Viewsonic V37 PocketPC Issues
So apparently when you don’t turn on the Viewsonic V37 PocketPC for about a month, it goes dead and erases all information it has on it. It must be a flaw of the device, to not have a backup battery.
I lost a lot of vital information… but I guess that’s what I deserve for not using it. I don’t think I’ll use it anymore since school let out, so I’ll probably sell it pretty soon.

Ray,
I had one of those compaq IPAQs, and it did the same thing. Very weak!

What you need to do is grab yourself something running Windows Mobile 5 - WM5 adds persistent storage to any device that runs it, which saves you from the PITA process of having to back things up constantly and ensuring that your batteries are charged and backup batteries are still alive.
Mind you, that’s not exactly a cheap option :p
