What he said was accurate. All you need to connect a WM device is the
downloadable ActiveSync from MS. There might still be some rare devices out
there that it doesn't recognize, but the MDA is not rare and I haven't heard
of that issue in quite some time. (The lack of the right 'driver' for a
particular device).

There are a lot of reasons that AS might not see your MDA. Chief among them
are firewalls and antivirus programs blocking the connection. Have any of
those running? Even MS ones? They don't need to be shut off, just configured
properly.
