I love my 2215. I love my Stowaway XT. I hate the drivers.

It's time to move our thoughts about the subject to a single forum! I know this isn't specific to the 2215, but all iPAQ owners need to sound off and tell Fellowes that there complacent attitude towards fixing the problem will not win them any sales. I've personally gone through the "my screen won't show up and I have to soft reset (although the bluetooth still works)" thing, and it's frustrating as hell to know I can't fix it!

Contact Fellowes!

Perhaps ThinkOutside is eventually responsible, but part of the burden a company like Targus or Fellowes takes on is customer support. In fact, this is exactly why ThinkOutside is not mass selling them directly! (second reason is probably branding) Let's split the difference and complain to both departments

Try the PriceGrabber feature on the home page with the search term "stowaway xt." You'll see plenty of hits!

Please Please Do all of us a favor:

Demand that working drivers for the Windows Mobile 2003 operating system be released.
Thank you

New driver at Targus Site.

This is a known issue. http://www.thinkoutside.com is working on it and the last I heard it would be mid-late september.

Whether or not they are actually working on it, I think complaining is the right thing to do at this point. Even if they had never heard of Windows Mobile 2003 until the day it was released (which I find hard to believe), they still have had a couple of months already to write this driver. I am finding it increasingly unacceptable that they give no updates - and indeed no response whatsoever to many of their customers. :evil:

What is doubly frustrating to me is that Dave at Davesipaq.com gave the StowawayXT a glowing review with his 2215 and then thinkoutside.com posted a snippet of the review on their home page!!

Here's Dave's quote:

"If you ask me, the new Stowaway XT keyboard is the best keyboard out there for your h2215."

Here's what Thinkoutside.com put on their home page:

"If you ask me, the new Stowaway XT keyboard is the best keyboard out there...Think Outside has proved to us once again that the impossible may be possible,..."

THEY SPECIFICALLY REMOVED THE MENTION TO THE 2215 FROM THE QUOTE since they know it doesn't work, but yet they imply that it works great by posting a review from DavesIpaq.

I sent Dave an e-mail asking him how he got it to work so well, but he never replied... I'd be upset if I were him, but I guess any publicity is good publicity.

I'll call the number and talk to customer service.

It actually works just fine when in use. The problem is the device won't suspend properly - seriously drains the battery - and you must soft reset to wake it up.
