Vista Mobile Device Centre does not work

Just a word of warning:
I have changed my PC to dual boot with Vista and XP in the last couple of weeks and Anquet v6 and v1..20 both work on Vista but you cannot use the Activesync replacement Mobile Device Centre to download to a pocket pc. I have logged it as a problem with Anquet support but they have said they have not got a timescale when Vista/MDC support will be available.

I am beginning to think it was a mistake going 100% with Anquet as Memory Map seem to be more up to date.

I have a request in with Anquet technical support for the same issue. (not that they seem to want to answer) Their website clearly states that V06 works with Vista! Misrepresentation I think or mis-leading at best.

Things to check:

Are Anquet and WMDC the latest versions? I have Anquet 6.2.2.0 working fine in Vista, communicating with my Pocket PC via WMDC 6.1.

Is the PPC actually connecting? You should be able to browse the contents via WMDC.

Do you have a firewall? I have Windows Live One Care and this had to be reconfigured to allow connections to a PPC.

Apologies if these are all basics that you've already addressed.
