We have multiple Windows Mobile devices - a couple of IPAQs and a smartphone. They all connect through Activesync and appear as a "Mobile Device" in Explorer. They all have SD cards and we can run various readers for various formats. The devices don't appear in Explorer as a drive letter. Currently, I pull out the SD card, put it into a card reader, which makes a drive letter appear and "save to disk."

However, I'm wondering if I can go directly through Activesync in some way? Explorer lets me browse to the SD card by clicking on Mobile Device, but I don't see any way to do a save to disk to the Mobile Device, nor does the device appear to Calibre as an eReader.

Any hints on how to send ebooks directly to a Windows Mobile type device when connected via Activesync?

Thanks!
