To see a list of mobile channels you can subscribe to at no fee, visit the Windows CE Mobile Channel List Web page at www.microsoft.com/windowsce/channels.

While a channel Web page is displayed, click the Add Mobile Channel button, and then select Make available offline to download the channel to your desktop PC. The mobile channel will be transferred to your device the next time you synchronize.

Mobile favorites

When you install ActiveSync, a subfolder called Mobile Favorites is created in the Favorites folder on your desktop PC. You can synchronize the favorites in this subfolder with the favorites on your HP Jornada. Unless you mark the favorite link as a mobile favorite, only the link will be downloaded to your device, and you will need to connect to your ISP or network to view the content.
