Sorry, but those tools are extremely poor value. Try again.

ActiveSync - useful only if you use useless WinCE devices. Again, poor value.
I don't think you looked very hard:

I haven't timed it, but I can read a book all day on my Pocket PC and still have battery left over at the end of the day. However, we are not debating the suitability of a Pocket PC as a reading device. I think we all prefer to read our books on the electronic readers we've purchased (for me the Cybook), but since I can't read my PDF books on the Cybook, I am happy I can read them on my Pocket PC.
