PocketMIDI plays (audio quality isn't the greatest), but cannot exit or switch to another app... only a soft-reset will correct it.

Do you all think its such a good idea for microsoft to add so much support for the different languages (i've just read the "under the skin" post) after they've released source code for Win CE?
To me I think we'd better get antivirus for our handhelds!
and be prepared for a batter of viruses

I have not been able to get any of the DivX programs to work (PocketDivX and Pocket MVP). I get audio errors.
Laridian works fine on mine. I'm loving it!
Hardware: I also was not able to get the Linksys WCF12 to work. They said that their driver did not yet support WM2003.
D-link 660 and software works great (as already reported - I just thought that I'd agree). Good driver with lots of extras (like signal strength over all channels).
Best,
Erik

SPB PocketPlus does not work properly with 2003, it will often lockup your pocket pc when the reminder alarms go off..................

This is not actually correct. While it does block it from installing, I've heard that you can install it manually and it will work. I'm going to try it tonight when I get home.
I can't seem to link to the instructions for some reason... here they are...

Follow these instructions and you should be able to install Money for the PPC (2003 version):
1. With the PPC in the cradle and ActiveSync running, start the installation of Pocket Money for Money 2003 on the desktop.
2. Go through the normal install routine, following the prompts on the desktop machine.
3. When the PPC pops up an error message, don't clear it. Instead, open File Explorer on the PPC. (I don't know if the error message needs to remain open, but without having experimented, I suggest leaving it on screen for now.)
4. Browse to "My Device /Windows /AppMgr /Install" and tap-and-hold on the file that is in that folder. (This is the one caveat... your folder may end up being different, but something tells me that this is the folder you should look in). The file should be obviously related to Pocket Money.
5. When the menu appears, choose copy.
6. Still using File Explorer on the PPC, browse to "My Device /Temp" and paste the file in this new folder.
7. Once the file appears in this new folder, single tap the file. The installation will begin on its own.
8. Close the error message from the original installation.
9. After you have successfully installed Money, with the PPC in the cradle, explore the PPC (use Explore from within ActiveSync).
10. Browse to "My Device /Windows" and look for "MoneyCE".
11. Right click on this file and choose "Create a shortcut".
12. Move this shortcut to "My Device /Windows /Start Menu /Programs" to finish the install.
13. Rename this new shortcut as "Microsoft Money".
14. Remove the PPC from the cradle. Check the settings for the Money Conduit in ActiveSync, place the PPC back into the cradle, and away you go.
At this point, it should be working like a charm. Money shows up in the uninstall listing on the PPC, but I actually don't know if it will work or not. Good luck!

Alrighty...
I tested these installation steps for Pocket Money on WM2003 and I am happy to report that it is installed and appears to be functioning properly! :)

Don't know about anyone else but I installed hp mobile printing after upgrading - and although it loaded at first, before I tried to print anything it locked up my ax and then it restarted at the new today screen except none of the programs I had already installed (or would have been in the rom ie word etc) where showing - all I could do was find files - and that only showed up the mp3 files on my storage cards
Strangely enough I could still play them - but not control them because wmp didn't show....
Had to hard reset to get back to the beginning - I'm not going new hp mobile printing till I've done a back up of the all the stuff I have installed since the upgrade this time!

For those interested, ThunderHawk came out with a version compatible with 2003. (maybe this is old news but, I just saw it today) (?)

The following programs don't work with WM2003:
* PocketBlinds
* SideX 2003 (& its applets) *Update: Now works, download the latest installer at mtux.com
Also Advanced Explorer (v1.2 Freeware) has a problem with WM2003; when you tap and hold to bring up a drop-down menu and select an option, it brings up a duplicate menu. You can tap to the side of it to cancel the second menu window. It's a little annoying, but still functional.
