Patience My Young Padawan - EUU3 for the Jornada 560 Is Here
http://h20015.www2.hp.com/en/softwareList.jhtml?reg=&cc=&prodId=hpjornada563922&lc=en&softitem=Pocket%20PC%202002&sw_lang=en
HP has formally released EUU3 for the Jornada 560 series. The only footnote in the article is that the firmware update from February needs to be applied. If you have EUU1 or EUU2 installed already, you have the firmware in place. If not, grab the firmware first then install EUU3. You don't need to put EUU1 and EUU2 on first. I have seen problems on the 560 series installing the firmware which can usually be avoided by clearing out the HP FileStore first. Enjoy!

Are you tapping that file within File Explorer on your Pocket PC? If not, stop right now and print out the Readme. You missed quite a bit of info, several bits that will if not heeded will potentially turn your Jornada into a nice paperweight.
If you are, I suggest redownloading it. You may have a corrupt file or it got corrupted in transferring it to the Jornada.

Note, one of the bits of info Ed is refering to is a note that it takes longer than 2 minutes to instal (it says 2 on screen), claiming it is more like 5 minutes. ITS NOT, I timed mine at 13 minutes.
Don't whatever you do interupt it while it's installing. It seams like a very long time to wait, and you will begin to think it's frozen, but it has not.

For those of us who installed the iPaq version on the Jornada, did we miss anything by not waiting? Is re-install possible or worthwhile?

If you've been impatient and already installed the iPAQ EUU3 should you install this one or are they the same?

Sacrificial lamb
I hate to represent the newbies by falling on this handgrenade (especially in light of that snarky paperweight comment above :roll: ) but,
What is EUU3? (or 2 for that matter?)  ops:

EUU2 and EUU3 are End User Updates, they are just updates released by the OEM/Vendor that fixes known issues and/or updates some of the components to a new version that has been updated or revamped to fix some issue(s) with it.
Or in simplier form it is like a service pack for Windows OS.
If I am wrong on any of this please feel free to correct me.
Now if only Toshiba/Audiovox would release there official and supported EUU3 for the e550G.

that helps
That helps. What are the issues that this deals with specifically? This is from a user perspective, so I'm referring to changes that would be noticeable...
And a note to Ed, I re-read your post and I guess it wasn't so snarky after all...

Proving that HP/Compaq doesn't have any idea what's going on in their own organization: I happened to email them just yesterday asking when the EUU3 would be released for the Jornadas. Here's their response:
"The EUU3 Update is currently not available for the Jornada 560 series
unit and I do not have any information to offer you at this time. I
suggest that you regularly check the following Web site to download the
latest drivers and software available for your unit".
Honestly, as much as I love my Jornada, I think that HP is a bunch of idiots. :roll:
