I Love WM2005!

I finally got around to doing the upgrade to WIndows Mobile 2005, although allthenegative publicity surrounding it had me very scared. I didn't run into any of the problems I've seen listed. Only two of my programs don't work and they weren't important ones. Three fantastic things happened because of this upgrade.

Finally, I can have all the programs I wanted to automatically start come up. Previously with PPC2003 I could not have WA2, P+, iLauncher, CalliGrapher, PB, and PW all come up. Usually, I had to take CalliGrapher out of startup and just remember to start it on my own. YAY! Everything starts up now!

I had purchased a Bluetooth Virtual Laser Keyboard about 6 months ago for $200 and could never get it to work. I upgrade to WM2005 with it's Microsoft BT stack and now it's working without a hitch. Woot!

I saved the best for last. Right before I had gotten my x50v I had purchased Snood - the best game ever. It worked great on my x30, but didn't work well on my x50v... that is until I upgraded. YAY! My favorite game is back!

I love this upgrade!!!

Anyway, the things that are not working...

Pocket RSS won't update. Not a huge deal since I usually go online anyway.

The other program I will miss is the Pocket SNES. I had just discovered the joy of having a Super Nintendo emulator about two weeks ago. I supposed I will live since I made it this far without one...

Those darn softkeys. I guess I better get used to them. SO much real estate for a minimal gain. Those I could do without.

Anyway, I am very happy and excited to be using the new operating system and happy it solved my bugs from the previous OS.
