ppcTunes Syncs iTunes to Pocket PC and Microsoft Smartphone devices For The First Time November 01, 2004 [General] | By Edward J. R. ppcTunes is the first tool of its kind - allowing Windows iTunes users to auto-copy their playlists to their Pocket PC. Now you don't need Apple iPod to use iTunes also in mobile devices - all you need is Pocket PC or Microsoft Smartphone! 
Until this product was created, Pocket PC users running Windows had no way to sync their iTunes playlists to their handhelds. As you can imagine, this tool adds an extremely enjoyable functionality to users' handheld experience. More information from PocketMac company follows. 
* * * * * ppcTunes Syncs iTunes to Pocket PCs For The First Time Information Appliance Associates, creators of industry-leading connectivity solutions, announces the new release of ppcTunes, the first ever tool to automatically copy & convert music from Apple iTunes to Windows Mobile Pocket PCs, Pocket PC Phones & Smartphones. "We're incredibly excited," said Terence Goggin, CTO of Information Appliance Associates. "Now, Windows users of iTunes can get their MP3s & WMAs to their Windows Mobile devices." What's more, ppcTunes has built-in technology to conserve space on users' PDAs. The application has the option to convert users'MP3s into 1/2-size WMA files and then copy these files to the PDA. "One of the features we kept hearing over and over again from our customers was they didn't want their devices bursting at the seams with music," Goggin continued. "That's why we have the option of further compressing MP3s into WMA files, cutting the space requirement of these files in half. We also give users the option to sync their music to a Storage Card, opening up additional storage besides the built-in option for their handheld." Additional features of ppcTunes include "Sync on Connect", allowing users to make sure every time they connect their PDA to their PC, ppcTunes will run and copy their music automatically and "Playlist Select", where users can choose exactly which playlists get synched every time. Goggin concluded, "This is a really exciting merging of two worlds. Now iTunes users can sync their non-copyrighted music to their Windows Mobile handhelds." ppcTunes retails for $9.95.
