Hi everyone
First post here and have a question
Am looking at ways to push out info to a large team (50) through their PDAs
Thought about web to text but that seems expensive
Thought about setting up an exchange mailbox which all units would sync to, but I need to know if there is a way to block the deleting of email from the PDA
Or
any other suggestions any one may have
Thanks

You can't block deleting messages from the device.

You might want to play with a disconnected SQL database and a small app to show the contents of a table/column,

It's hard to answer this without knowing things like the volume of data, and the sensitivity etc.

Here are a couple of ideas...
- RSS feed and a read-only Reader (may have to be a bespoke app)?
- Twitter. All users are followers so data can be received via text messages or web, or twitter app but nothing to stop them deleting messages locally.
