Which handheld do you have and what version of Pocket PC is it running?

I've heard of people having this problem and then it's fixed after 
getting the latest end user update (ROM update) for their device. For 
general purposes you may want to see if any Pocket PC End User Updates 
are available for your device. The updates are available from your 
device manufacture, not Microsoft. The URLs below are good sources to 
find out more about such updates.
