I’m currently running Anywheremap on an iPAQ Hx4700 and I’m very pleased with it.  However, because the Hx4700’s uses Windows Mobile 2003, I can’t download the latest map program from Anywheremap; it requires WM5 or higher.  In the past, people who upgraded their Hx4700s to WM5 had all kinds of problems, but those problems were all supposed to have been taken care of with Microsoft’s latest release, WM6.1.  So the questions are: have any Anywheremap/Hx4700 users downloaded WM6.1; how did you do it; and how do you like it?    

Thanks,   

Don

Hello Don,



sorry was not very active over Xmas and as I'm not seen any answer here 

my experience. I'm running PocketFMS (as Anywhere Map is not so useful 

outside the US) on my Hx4700 and did change autum 2007 from WM2003 to 

WM6.0 and it was a difference which was noticeable, mostly by freeing 

some memory. 6.0 for the 4700 is a non official version, but running 

fine, very stable, faster and does not loose all your settings when the 

battery goes flat.



You can see some perf tests here: 

<http://www.pocketfms.com/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=3954>



The description how to upgrade is seen here 

<http://forum.brighthand.com/showthread.php?s=151039929fbc914bba3cdba863cd00e4&t 46529> 

(read carefully and reread before you start) I had some difficulties to 

find the image, let me know if you can not find it I might still have it 

somewhere.



Good luck and have fun!



Werner
