The pacmate uses microsoft activesync (for xp) and windows mobile device
dcenter (for windows vista and windows 7), which acts just like a regular
windows mobile phone.

Hi Mr.  Andrews, I am not sure, but I think the pac mate may not 
be updated anymore.  I thought I heard something a while back 
about how fs was focused more on JAWS and stuff than the pm.  Out 
of curiosity, what syncing options does the pm have that the 
others do not?
Best,
Josh

While these devices are somewhat different in their approaches, 
they
mostly do the same things.  If you are like most of us, a change 
of
this magnitude would have to have a good reason.

So, are there things that you can't do on the Pac Mate that you 
could
on Apex or Braille Sense?  Or is it that PM isn't as glitsy any 
more?

p.s.  I still use a PacMate.  It has synching options that the 
others
don't have, and I need them.  Plus I can use pocket versions of 
Word,
Excel etc.  which I need to do for work.

Hello everyone,
Right now I have a pacmate but while at the convention I got a
chance to learn about the apex and the braille sense.  What do 
you
guys use and do you think it would be worth making a switch?
