Windows Mobile Device Center Updated

By the Betanews Staff | Published June 7, 2007, 2:44 PM

Microsoft has released version 6.1 of the Windows Mobile Device Center, which most notably adds support for the Redmond company's newest Windows Mobile 6 platform. The update also enables a PC to access the Internet over a connected phone.

Windows Mobile Device Center 6.1 only works with 32-bit and 64-bit versions of Windows Vista, and Microsoft Office is required to synchronize contacts and calendar items. The software does not currently support syncing Windows Calendar and Contacts items. Download WMDC 6.1 from FileForum.

What is the difference between this and ActiveSync?

Nevermind, this was created for Vista and ActiveSync is for XP.
