Is CeNet the OS beneath PPC 2003 or is it something else? In other words what in the heck are we getting June/July on the new PPCs? The reason I ask is that CeNet (whatever it is) seems to be the driving force behind fast video on some Asian phones and on upcoming devices like video2go. The bottom line - is PPC 2003 a step forward for video or, like XScale performance over StrongArm, a step backwards? Are we finally going to see high quality QVGA at 30fps on MPEG4 based players like WMP and MVP? Will WMP support WMV9? Or is video performance going to remain stagnant on PPCs with Microsoft’s attention going to smart phone video and dedicated devices?

Anyone have information on this?

I can confirm that Pocket PC 2003 is based on Windows CE .NET 4.2.

As for everything else, well, you're going to have to wait and see. :wink:
