Default Pocket PC 2003 Delayed

I got an email from Dell notifying me that my Pocket PC 2003 software would not ship until 9/10/03 (not late July as promised). I ordered the software on 6/24. I realize this is because of the quality issue, but I'm the only one who has posted this so far, has anyone else gotten this notification?

Yeah, I got an automated phone call from them telling me the same thing. Seems like a long time to wait....

I believe this is because they're trying to solve some problems they've been having...

I just recieved my Dell Axim as a gift yesterday (July 23rd). I assume it was ordered in early July. Could someone please tell me if I am running on Mobile 2003? Is there a way I can see what OS this is?

I'd bet that you have PPC 2002. You can check by going to Start > Settings > System > About. Version 3.0.xxxxx is PPC 2002. Anything higher is going to be PPC 2003.

Yikes, I've got version 4.20.1081! So mine's not running as fast as it should be, eh? Funny, I think it runs really fast! I guess one game ran pretty slow (Leo's Flight Simulator), but another flight sim with nicer graphics ran fine, so it must just be poor coding. Is this problem going to even affect 3D game performance?

Oh yeah, Chopper Alley ran pretty poorly too.

Interesting, I just got my shipment delayed e-mail from Dell. They told me on or before August 22, 2003.

Yup...me too. Part of the e-mail text:

"We have reviewed your order. Although we had anticipated being able to ship your order sooner, we are experiencing an unexpected delay and will not be able to ship this order and any associated orders until on or before 8/22/2003."

:cry:
