APRIL FOOLS: Toshiba and HP Offering Windows Mobile 2003 Upgrades

[Jason Dunn]

In a dramatic about-face, Toshiba and HP have pledged to offer all customers Windows Mobile 2003 upgrades for units that were previously not supported, including the Toshiba e310 and HP iPAQ 1910. In Stay tuned for the ordering URL! Toshiba released this statement:<br /><br />"We realized that by not offering an upgrade to customers who loyally supported the Toshiba brand, we were being bad people. Very bad people. We're really sorry....really."<br /><br />But hey, what do I care, I'm an OQO guy now! Woo hoo! :mrgreen: At least with it running Windows XP, I can get software updates for it, unlike the other versions of Windows. :roll:

I'm not going to upgrade any of my older PPCs unless they give me a free flip lid cover.

Viva la Jornada :!:

[Kathy_Harris]

Yeah, yeah

"e310 and HP iPAQ 1910"

And hell has frozen over. Happy April Fools :)

[Jacob]

You almost had me there. :oops:

Until that quote about them actually caring about customers who loyally supported the toshiba brand :lol:

By the way, I heard WM2003 SE will come with a flip lid cover ;)

Will HP's Windows Mobile 2003 upgrades include an SH3 install? My Jornada 545 is still going strong. If not, I'll still be satisfied just upgrading my Jornada 568.

[Deus]

Thats funny! I posted the same news last night! If a bunch of us did it we might have convinced people!! HAHAHA :lol:

[Zack Mahdavi]

lol.. I've never heard a company in my entire life say, "we're sorry... "

I'm still waiting for the day!

No, no, and...no. :lol:

Of course, to make it a really good joke you should've included a promise to upgrade the Jornada [sob]

Come now, that would have been COMPLETELY ridiculous. :lol:

[cyclwestks]

You had me, LOL, I almost even cross posted about it to another site. This was even after I told my kids they could skip school today, then a few minutes later I asked them "remember what day it is?".
