ViewSonic Will Update Documentation on V35
Posted by Ed Hansberry in "ARTICLE" @ 06:00 AM
Woo Hoo! You did it! 8) ViewSonic has been monitoring our thread on V35 memory and will be updating their documention and web pages to make it clearer to consumers they when they buy the device, only about 36MB will be available to them.
The Register's Andrew Orlinski contacted ViewSonic late yesterday. " 'We were made aware of the situation by Pocket PC Thoughts. There is 64MB but because of the operating system image less is available to the user. We're using a new type of memory,' Duane Brozek, PR director at ViewSonic said. ViewSonic will amend its marketing material and Brozek says the second edition of the User Guide has already been revised. Brozek says it was 'an inadvertent mistake'."
Great job! As I said in my original thread, the V35 looks like a compelling device even with the lower amount of available RAM as long as the user knows how much will be available to him or her.
