Ditto. I am not lookign for a friebie, but I spent $700 a year ago for IPAQ
5555 and it does upset me that I can not upgrade to a new OS, even if I am
willing to pay for it.
Like others, I think this was the last Ipaq I bought. Sadly, I went thru 5
ipaq models until I learned my lesson (started with Aero years back).
Well - time to move to a brand with more respect for loyal customers
