MS's history for 'Crash & Burn OS upgrades' make me hestitant - I'll live vicariously thru the successes and failures of the early adoptees first.

The only thing that I find even marginally interesting is Mobile Word - as anything has got to be better than Pocket Word and its failure to maintain formatting. The rest of the 'features' don't really apply to my use of the PDA.

The failure of the new OS to be backward compatible to current software, to gain a dodgy ActiveSync (just when I've just got the one I have running smoothly) and to find users are still stuck with a crappy 3 year old Desktop PIM as the portal to the OS are definitely not in the upgrade's favour either.
