I want to change the name of my mobile device. I have deleted it and it
comes back each time. Is there a way to simply change it?

Hi,
It depends. If you are using Vista, then there is no option to change the
name because it is set from the PC when the partnership was setup. If it is
with ActiveSync then you can - change it by using Start - Settings -
System - About and change the Device ID.
