Gregory Scher emailed us the link about this new update for Windows Media Player 8.0.
"This update for Windows Media Player that comes pre-installed on new Pocket PCs running Pocket PC 2002 provides some minor updates and fixes for the Player. You must have Windows Media Player for Pocket PC 2002 already installed on your device before you can install this upgrade."
So now for the questions: the install takes up 1.3 megs, and it goes into RAM. It's not an XIP update that patches the space already being used in ROM. What gives? XIP updates are an awesome way to keep the Pocket PC up to date and not chew up our system RAM. I'm trying to find out what's new, because nothing really obvious jumps out.
The build on my iPAQ 3875 is 0096, and after updating my Jornada it's at build 0103. I've looked at most of the screens and everything looks the same. Anyone see anything new?
