Do You Use AvantGo?

Posted by Ed Hansberry in "THOUGHT" @ 02:00 PM

I was wondering how many of you use AvantGo? I've used it since 1998 or 1999 and it has always been one of my staple applications that goes on the device. Lately though it has become more of a hassle than it is worth. First, there is one channel in my lineup that is just dog slow, and I suspect it is the CNet channel, the one I probably read the most of. :? It has missing images and can take 4-5 minutes to sync over broadband. It hangs for the longest time at the "Now searching for updated pages" section.

Also, as I travel, I often leave my laptop at work and ActiveSync remotely via VPN. AvantGo is just brutal over GPRS when it starts to sync. So, I've uncheck it in ActiveSync and for now just remember to sync manually when it is in the cradle or I have access to a broadband connection. I'm not sure how much longer I'll fool with it.
