<a href="http://www.pocketpcpassion.com">http://www.pocketpcpassion.com</a><br /><br />A few months ago, <a href="http://www.pocketpcthoughts.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=29964">Pocket PC Passion's servers died</a> and the site disappeared from the internet. The Pocket PC Passion domain name is still used, but technically, it is now "mobilePassion.com." :) <br /><br /><i>"So you notice the new title mobilePASSION.com versus pocketPCpassion.com? With all the changes in the mobility space (and the site going down) I thought this might be the appropriate time to make a shift in the website name focus to cover more of the range in mobile products. Now with Windows Mobile being so much more with the advent of Portable Media Centers, Smartphones, Pocket PC, Pocket PC Phone Edition, and even things like Tablet PC, Smart Watch, and all the accessories that goes in this genre. It is all about mobility."</i><br /><br /><img src="http://www.pocketpcthoughts.com/images/hansberry/2004/20041118-pocketpcpassion.jpg" /><br /><br />The old posts and forums are not back, but Dale hasn't given up hope, and we can at least enjoy is periodic updates via his new blog. Welcome back Dale!

I guess we'll have to wait for the DNS servers to get updated. This still brings me to a domain holding page...

I owe a lot of my interest in this area to Dale. His was the first site I started hitting regularly. Now, though, I've heard he spends most of his time trying to get his Outlook Express newsgroups configured right. [That's an inside joke. Sorry.]

Anyway, Dale, wherever you are, I'm tickled to see your site getting back on its feet.

Welcome back Dale!

Even if the site only becomes half as good as it used to be, it will be worth a daily visit!

I think Ed could make a full time career out of helping Dale keep his newsgroups alive. :)

I think Dale made a first impression on many of us with his *Passion* for Pocket PCs

Actually, the inside joke's on you, Brad, since I'm sure Dave (Paragon) was part of the team alongside Ed helping fix Dale's newsgroups at the last summit. :P

Which lasted all of about TWO days. I swear, Dale should not be given anything digital unless it is in ROM. :rotfl:

Now, now Dave! Hey are you and Bobby going to be working with Dale on the new site? :) I hope all the old users come back! Well, aside from the trolls. . .

Yeah, I have guest rights on the site, and will be helping out a bit, not as much as I did in the past though.....and yes I too hope to see some old friends back again. :)

PocketPCPassion works but Mobilepassion still needs to be updated. That is a good idea to keep your old domain--obviously and adding another domain will help as well.
