On my Pocket PC (WM2005) if I go into Settings>System>About>Device ID, I could change the Device Name to anything I want.
But on Smartphone, Activesync seems to automatically assign a stupid device name called new_(Windows XP userID) to my device. How do I overwrite it?! is it possible to even overwrite it?
