When working in Pocket Internet Explorer on a windows mobile 5 device, I was unable to get to any internal sites without using the fully qualified domain name of that site. So I couldn’t reach http://test, but I could reach http://test.cyborgworkshop.org . I pulled my hair out on this one until I found a foot note on a random google page suggesting that I change my connection type from Internet to Work. Guess what. If you are using a connection type of Internet, domain searching is disabled. In order to reach a hosts by its canonical name, you have to be on a connection type of Work. As far as I can tell, that is the only difference between the two and is L-A-M-E.
