Windows Phone Thoughts: Toshiba e800 Windows Mobile 2003 SE Update Released on Toshiba.de Site

Sean from MGN has a pleasant surprise for you e800 owners: Toshiba Germany has posted the Windows Mobile 2003 SE upgrade on their site, and strangely enough, it seems to work on North American-SKU'd devices. 8O Sean installed the update onto his North American e800 device, and it seems to be working. It's in English, VGA is active across the entire device, WiFi is working, and no Bluetooth software was installed. This is risky stuff though folks - ROM upgrades aren't to be fooled with, so you may want to wait a bit before taking the plunge. This makes me think this is a worldwide software package that installs only what's needed for that particular device.

From the Toshiba page: "This Windows Mobile SE Update (Pocket PC 2003 SE Update) includes all necessary file for the Update. Also a Upgrade Guide is included with detailed instructions how the upgrade must be done.NOTE:Some programs may not run , or run only limited, under this new Operating System. In this case please ask the vendor of this program for an Update.To use the new features of WM2003 SE, the software must be designed specially for WM2003 SE."

Makes me wish I had an e800... :D
