Microsoft Firms Up Pocket PC Plans
Posted by Jason Dunn in "NEWS" @ 12:15 PM
"A WEB SITE SPECIALISING in the Pocket PC suggests that Microsoft is on the verge of releasing a new OS for the devices in March or April. The site, Pocket PC Thoughts, is obviously under some non disclosure agreement from Microsoft, but reading between the lines, comments seem to suggest a new OS is go-go. Refusing to confirm or deny any speculation by readers of the site, nevertheless it appears as though that if you compare the release date beween Pocket PC and Pocket PC 2002, that would suggest a spring debut for a fresh refresh of the OS."
I wanted to clarify that none of our comments should be taken to mean that a new Pocket PC OS will be out in March or April. There have been enough murmurings for everyone to know that there's a new OS coming this year, but please don't expect it next month. The Inquirer was reading between the lines in this thread, but I didn't mean to imply it was a mathmatical certaintly that they release a new OS every 18 months on the nose. :wink: It will come when it comes, and in the meantime we'll have fun with what we have. Good? Good.
