The new Network Analyzer PowerToy for Windows Mobile 5.0 Pocket PCs and Smartphones from Microsoft allows you to run ping and ipconfig commands right from your phone or PDA. That's mighty dandy and you don't need to grab any laptop to check on your server's status when your boss starts screaming. Too bad there's no version for Palm OS devices.
The New Network Analyzer PowerToy for Windows Mobile 5.0 Pocket PCs and Smartphones, contain tools such as ping and ipconfig that you can run from within your device. Handy tools which should have been default on these devices. Very useful when trying to troubleshoot network connectivity since Windows Mobile devices nowadays have so many different network stacks (WiFi, Edge, 3G, UMTS, EVDO, etc)
