Microsoft Site on Pocket PC 2003 Upgrades
Microsoft has put up a great little informational site about device upgrades and where to get them. If you've found today's post barrage overwhelming, you might find this to be a useful reference to bookmark.
(Interesting sidenote: they reference the site ppcupgrade.com for the Toshibas. However, that sounds (and the site looks) a bit more general. If someone discovers something interesting about the site, let us know...)

Well, I entered in a bogus date and the serial number for my iPAQ 5455. No go. It said that the serial # is invalid, so I guess they are doing some sort of checking against Toshiba's serial # list.
I also entered in a different date (within the range) and entered in the serial # for my E740. It didn't take it either.

I can't even order or enquire about ppcupgrade.com because UK isn't on the list of countries! In fact I can't get ANY information on receiving PocketPC *cough* sorry Windows Mobile 2003 in the UK!

May be a stupid question in that I just haven't found the answer in the plethora of fantastic news that's hit recently, but is owning a Compaq 3870 in the UK likely to rule me out of this game?

It didn't take my E740 serial number either.
"This upgrade is offered to you by Microsoft for any PDA brand preinstalled with Microsoft� PocketPC� 2002 and is subject to the offer Terms and Conditions." I think they need to update the first page of the site.

I too can't get the upgrade for my Toshiba E755 because I live in Europe!
Any news on what to do?

The HP page only mentions iPaq upgrades. I guess us Jornada 568 users are SOL.
