There's no API for doing that. You could write a network program running on
the PC and a corresponding program to run on the Pocket PC to contact the PC
program and ask it what time it is. So, possible, yes. Useful? Well,
probably not. Isn't your PPC set up to have its time set by the PC when it
connects with AS anyway? If so, you can get the device's own time and
you'll know what the time on the PC is, with some accuracy.
