Default Windows Vista - ready for Soaring Laptops?

It is time to upgrade the old laptop, was wondering if Window Vista is
compatible with the soaring software/hardware.

So does the Edition of Vista matter? I think for my work needs [CAD
and Desktop Publishing]
I will end up with the Business edition,
do these other versions cause any additional considerations?
Ultimate
Home Premium
Home Basic

SeeYou - seems like it has been tested ok

WinScore ?

StrePla - I think they issued a new compatible version.

Winpilot 3D
Winpilot Pro/Adv for PDA

PDA hardwa

I understand that Activesync is now called "Microsoft Windows Mobile
Device Center" Sadly only Windows Mobile 2003 and Windows Mobile 5
are supported, older versions no longer: So old Compaq Aeros and many
other Ipaqs cannot install new software upgrades since Active sync is
not available. You may be able to connect and copy files but that is
not the same as installing via activesync.

SeeYou Mobile seems to have a workaround installing the contents of a
zip onto the memory card.

Since most new laptops do not include a serial port I plan to add a
serial port adapter pcmcia card. [to be capatible with my
Volkslogger, and Garmin as well as other peoples serial port stuff]


Would appreciate feedback.
Chris
