PPCTools uncovers information about WM2003


Pocket PC Tools has been searching under every rock and in every corner for more information about the next version of Windows Mobile. Their tireless search ended with some very interesting information retrieved from a public forum.
A software developer answering a support question on a public forum has spilled some beans about the next version of the Windows Mobile operating system. This developer has identified a prototype version he is running labelled "Windows Mobile 2003 Second Edition, Version 4.21.1088 (build 14049)"
This information is in line with speculations that have been circulating that this update would not be a major upgrade but rather a refresh providing VGA support and screen rotation. The developer also confirms that the screen is rotated using the new SETTINGS > SYSTEM > SCREEN applet.

Great investigative work, James! I wonder what this will mean for MyVGA if it is built into the OS... :? (I'll keep using MyVGA. )

Woh! Do you think Bill Gates may have read the story on Cnet and said..."Hmmmmm, who is this Pocket PC Tools? I think I'll check out their site."
Come on, you know you're thinking it. Go ahead, admit it.. (It's the first thing that entered my mind when I read the article.
What kind of traffic did you get from that Cnet article? Did it send you through the roof?
Congratulations! That's like the Holy Grail of our sites...to get CNet'd or Slash Dot'd ...

Thanks guys. I had a news item a few weeks back that Brighthand credited (rightly so) in a daily piece they did and then later in the day after they traced back where I found it they removed us from the piece altogether.
That wasn't cricket.
