[missing-sync-pocketpc-talk] EAP for everyone?

Kinney, Jonathan David KINNEYJD at uwec.edu

I am curious to find out if the early adoptors program is available for everyone or if it is just a select few? An earlier post to the message board said, "I hope I get selected for the EAP" I was under the impression it will be for anyone wanting to help test out the first try of the product, Please confirm.

Thanks,

Jon

Hi,

how does one apply for the early adopters program? I would be quite 
interested in joining it, too.

Best Regards,

Peter

Brian,

Not sure if it's possible to get a currently shipping model that runs
PocketPC2000 and/or WinCE3.0.

I picked up my 3760 iPaq model off of ebay. Although, not as convienent, it
may be the only way of getting your hands on one. Compaq may also offer
refurbished models off their website.

There is nothing to apply for. It will go on sale on or before Macworld
Creative Expo in July. We will post a note here the moment it is available
at the store for purchase.

It is possible to do the update from a flash memory card if someone 
with an updated device (like me) can send you the rom file.
Someone did some programs to extract/restore the PocketPC OS in purpose 
to put linux on an iPaq and then switch back to PocketPC.
If you extract your ROM, you can send it to Brian so he can turn one of 
his devices to a PocketPC 2000. Or maybe i could extract my rom (iPaq 
3660 updated to pocketPC 2002 ) and send it to you.
More informations on this can be found somewhere on 
http://www.handhelds.org/

Ouch - if there are no longer any devices being sold that support the older
standards, it likely won't be a good use of time to support them (vs using
that time on things like Entourage, etc, which appeal to a broader base).
We'll have to see how hard (or easy) it is once we have one to try. If it
is hard/time consuming, we likely won't be supporting those older no-longer
sold devices.
