Yes, they have some plans they'll be announcing soon - as soon as they give me some hard info, I'll post on it for sure.

V35 Upgrade
I sent an e-mail to Viewsonic tech support asking about the upgrade, and got this response today:
Dear Valued Customer:
Thank you for your inquiry about ViewSonic V35 model.
Yes, we do have plans for offering upgrade to PC2003 operating system. It will be posted on our website. We do not know the release date yet.
This backs up what Jason has already said.
Yay!  |

That's a good question - seems like they're taking their sweet time getting it out! In a niche market as crowded and competitive as the PPC market, I'd think they'd be more concerned about demonstrating competence and good faith by getting the upgrade out ASAP... |

This is getting old....
OK, first it was July, then it was August, and now it looks like it's September (maybe). Here's the latest from Viewsonic tech support.

Dear Valued Customer,
Thank you for your inquiry.
The release date for the Pocket PC 2003 upgrade is slated for September, but may be subject to change. For customers that have purchased the V35 or V37, a nominal fee will be applied due to the licensing of Pocket PC 2003. The fees have not been determined at this time. Please check our website for further updates and availability of the Pocket PC 2003 upgrade.
If you have anymore questions, please feel free to contact our Technical Support Team at 1-800-688-6688 and choose the Mobile & Wireless menu option. One of our Technical Support Engineers will be glad to assist you.
Thank you for choosing ViewSonic.

Since I got my V37 for free, I guess I can't get too upset. |

Well I got a V35 last week and was looking for this update
I contacted 3 time viewsonic and have no anwser.
Will it have an update or not ? only have 30 days to return it if Viewsonic decided to not update their product. I don't want a unit that don't update and is unusable after 6 month like my ald casiopeia :? :cry:
