Is there information/samples on how to register an application to be
installed on mobile devices via ActiveSync?

For instance, Adobe Acrobat Reader for PocketPC, you download a setup.exe
(.msi installation) run it and it registers Acrobat Reader with ActiveSync.
The next time any devices sync with my computer, Acrobat Reader is installed
on them. If I go to Add/Remove programs inside ActiveSync, I can see Acrobat
there.

How can I get my application to do this?

See this article:

Specifically in the 'Creating a Desktop Computer Microsoft Installer
Package' section.
