Pocket PC 2003 release date announced!

See here

looks like mid 2003, and it'll be based on the .Net architecture.

Might be very interesting, I wonder if it will have any tweaks for the XScale processors? Maybe? Hopefully?

It looks like this is going to support VoIP, and a lot of other cool stuff. The only thing I don't like...

Looking past McKendric, Microsoft is working on another version of Windows CE, called Macallan, that is expected to ship in 2004

Mergh.

And I don't get the code name. McKendric? I could understand Whistler (from our hopeful British Columbia location that may host the 2010 Olympics) - but McKendric?

Oh well. Leave it to MS :D

I don't think this is for us Axim users. It's an update to current Windows CE .Net 4.1. Here is the link for more info about Windows CE .Net : http://www.microsoft.com/windows/embedded/...net/default.asp

So do you think that they will have a update program for the PPC users on 2002? or will they make you buy the upgrade to 2003?? Or will we have to just go and buy a new Axim with the new OS on it?

hummm,
"The Macallan" is, by the assessment of myself and many others, the very best single malt scotch whisky available. Not sure what the foretells for the world of PPCs but they name is certainly filled with wonderful spirits!
