Does this mean that any i-mate Pocket PC bought through Tek n Toys (http://estore.shopplex.com/app/storefront.aspx?cat_id=290&inv_id=99HY2067-00&modid=30214092059015&aid=5) [Affiliate] or Arne's site (http://www.ppcw.net/) is eligible?

Yes, any i-Mate because it's tracked by IMEI number which is a specific one for the i-Mate range and another value of i-Mate devices, compared to similar OEM products, like the one from Qtek... :-)

I've been registered at clubimate for awhile now, so its off to get my [email protected] account activated ;)

I think Club Imate is one of the best support sites for a phone I've ever seen. Looks like they truly want to make IMate more than just a device (like apple's done with ipod)

Too bad their Exchange email server isn't actually working.

Dispite being registered, you can't log in.

Club iPaq, anyone? ;)

Of course, it would probably make more sense to have several Club iPaq &lt;four-digit model number>s.

I spoke to their tech this morning through the NEW online technical support chat.

YES Imate now has free online real time support chat. THey have had some issues with the clubimate email and are working hard on it and will have it ready in the next few days. They want to make sure it is 100% I was told.

He also mentioned that they are beta testing a NEW ROM version.

Imate is the best supported device out there over the XDAII and MDAII

PUSH email, calendar & tasks to my device...can hardly wait AND FREE!
