Microsoft launched a version of its combined operating system, user interface and application software package designed for PDAs--called Pocket PC 2002--using the simplified form of Chinese characters used in mainland China. At least nine foreign and Chinese PDA makers have agreed to use the software in high-end PDAs, Microsoft said in a statement."<br /><br />Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet!
