One day left in the MMDC to go, but I was anticipating something from CeBIT or MMDC. Still hoping!

Microsoft last week offered the first glimpes of its upcoming Pocket PC 2003 operating system at its Mobility Developer Conferences in New Orleans.

Slow but steady, progress marches on...
Hoping they've got the XScale optimization nailed down!

Thanks for the link...

Two thoughts:

The fact that it's going to be basically a bug-fix release with a few enhancements disappoints me. There are a lot of major improvements they could make, but it doesn't sound like there will be many.

Second, it's good that they're letting applications take advantage of X-Scale processors... although I wish those programs would be able to run on PPC2002.
