Looking for as SD Card reader for my Windows Mobile device (Mogul by HTC)
I have been looking for Card Reader software for my new Windows Mobile 6.0 phone. I have Excel documents that I want to be able to edit directly on the device from Excel on my Desktop machine.
I have been able to do this on my Palm Zire72. I made the assumption when I bought this new phone that I would be able to do the same on the Windows Mobile device.
When I connect my phone to my PC I can see the devise on "My computer". I can even "browse" the file system, copy to and from, but am not able to see the device in the File/Open dialog in excel. I tried opening the file from an explorer window but its not an option.
Am I SOL?

Yes, the device supports bluetooth.
Since there is sensitive information in this document I really don't want it to be sync'd to another computer. If I password protect it then I'd have to buy DocumentsToGo in order to edit it on the device. (Windows Mobile Excel, at least my version, doesn't support password protected documents)
So my options so far...
1) Use activesync and password protect the file (plus buy DocumentsToGo)
2) Put the file (not password protected) on the microSD and pop that out of the mobile device and into a USB card reader every time I want to access it on my PC. FYI, I am mostly OK with the file not being password protected as long as its in my possession all of the time. Meaning its not left on my work computer unprotected.
3) Use WM5torage from MoDaCo (I haven't read over this website yet)
Any other options I'm missing?
