I have a Cingular 8525 phone with the latest version of Windows Mobile. I
just got the phone replaced through warranty because the old one died, and
now I am trying to transfer all my text messages to the new phone. Not an
easy task! Is there some way I can read my text messages on my XP laptop?
When I transfer the texts from the phone to the laptop, it says they are
converting to desktop format, but I cant read them. Any ideas would be
greatly appreciated as these are very important text messages.

Thanks in advance!

Chris

Try Jeyo Mobile Extender. Not only it lets you read messages on your
desktop, you can also send and receive sms in Outlook.

Please consider reposting your question to the pocketpc group (and also
following it). THis q has just been asked (and answered) there.

In addition to Jeyo, I also recommend PIM Backup and some other free
solutions.
