To Thread,
Has anyone tried WinCE?!?! It's very nice. I just got a Philips Velo and have been using it for appointments, note taking, simple spreadsheets, directions (street maps), mail, and the Internet. It has built in dial up connection support, auto schedule synchronization, and pocket Internet Explorer. Very nice machine.

Anyone know how much Microsoft makes off of WinCE? If I don't get an answer, I'll check at work. With Christmas coming up, and the fact that WinCE machines are available everywhere, I wonder if it could provide a surprise revenue boost :-)

Thanks,
Mike

I have had msft for years. Cost basis is about 7.00. Deal is that this stock hits plateaus for a while and then makes a jump. Problems is that the mm try to guess the jumps and it makes the stock jumpy in between the plateaus. Over the long run this has been a great stock. My children's college education is paid for thanks to msft.
