HELP!! Connect connect connect.....?

New evo user - scary with no knowledge. Ok; b4 I ask my "simple" minded ??'s - bare in mind that I've spent hours reading and am so lost.... that I need one of you brilliant people who use these creatures EVERY second of your day to answer ?'s that I'm SURE have been asked and answered b4 - but I haven't yet mastered the art of "query" b/c everything that comes up is MORE off the track...than what I need.  I'll say; however - that if you come into our hospital - this ICU/Telemedicine Nurse can save your life ....b/c I do THAT everyday  

Ok - I just got this lovely black box and now - need simple apps to make it useable for me - for biz & telemedicine triage.  Cool.... but I can't even figure out how to get it to connect to my home desktop and traveling netbook.  HELP!  I want to browse docs, videos, photos AND transfer - what do I do?

I have a Sprint Hotspot thingy (small black box) that enables me to get my netbook to the internet anywhere I am ...even in a rural critical access point hospital ...but I can't yet get my photos, docs, etc to my home desktop and to netbook from my evo.  I don't want to use usb - either the internet or WIFI or bluetooth. I have desktp with wireless windows xp - acer netbook running windows 7 (starter  version    tx

Another really useful app is Epocrates, find it in the market.

You can tether the phone to your netbook/notebook with the USB charging cord it came with and PDANet or Easytether, also available in the market. This will give you the ability to use the phone as your internet connection (although it is technically a breach of contract if you are not paying Sprint for tethering, many people do without consequence... not advocating, just saying). For either of these, you will also need to install the client software on your computer. I believe it is posssible, using either of these apps to use the phone as a external drive and internet connection at the same time.

Good luck and enjoy!
