The quest for free POP3 email for Windows CE that works
If you want to use free email, there are a lot of choices out there. Or are there? As Dan Huber learned, there may be lots of services, but very few really worked. He spent days testing services and out of five he tested, one kinda sorta worked, and one worked flawlessly. If you want free POP3 email on your Windows CE device and don't want to repeat Dan's hard work, read this article.

Microsoft Plus! and PowerToys: free resources from our friends in Redmond
Windows CE is a nice, compact operating system. Unfortunately, sometimes it seems like some important features have been left out. It must have seemed that way to Microsoft as well, because they released two free downloads that fill in many of the empty spots. Read this important article by senior technical editor Jason Perlow to get the most out of your device.

A survey of resources for Auto PC owners
Wow! Bet you had no idea there were so many cool goodies for the Auto PC. One of our favorite is the program that adjusts the volume of your radio automatically based on the speed (and thereby ambient noise level) of your car. For a complete overview of some of the coolest of the cool resources for Auto PC owners, read this article by contributing editor and Auto PC guru Mark Moeller. If you don't own an Auto PC, by the time you're done reading, you'll have a "Jones" for one of your own.

The dinky dozen: 12 helpful utilities in the bUSEFUL bundle
Seventy-nine bucks may seem like a lot of green for Windows CE utility software. But the bUSEFUL pack contains a heck of a lot of useful utility in one bundle. Is it worth the price of admission? Read this review by senior technical editor Jason Perlow to find out.

Instant conversions for world travelers
If you're a frequent world traveler, going on a trip to a foreign land, or work with foreign currencies a lot, then Conversions In Hand should prove to be a godsend. In this upbeat review, senior technical editor Jason Perlow shows you how to get from dollars to yen, gallons to liters, and miles to kilometers. If he could only tell us which way to Albuquerque.

WINDOWS CE POWER BOOK CLUB
Summer fun and American patriotism
Get yourself ready for the long, hot summer. This month, Judith Tabron writes our book club column, which celebrates the hot summer nights, fireworks, what it's like to be an American, and, well, a fine recipe for Mongolian Beef.

WINDOWS CE POWER SITE OF THE MONTH
A veritable Geek bonanza
What can we say? Geeks must stick together and the UGeek.com site is an ideal place for Geeks to gather and, well, do Geek things. Seriously, UGeek has loads of great information on gadgets, goodies, and things to tinker with and that's why it's our Windows CE Power Site of the Month.

FROM THE MANAGING EDITOR
The Internet, legality, and you
This month, managing editor Denise Amrich takes a stab at some interesting mail we've been getting. One fellow who lives in France was quite disturbed that Windows CE Power wasn't written in French. Mon dieu! Seriously, though, Denise provides some interesting resources that'll help you separate fact from fiction in the strange new world of Internet law.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Digital praise and yet more praise
