Pocket PC 2002 Alarm Stability
Posted by Jason Dunn in "THOUGHT" @ 08:56 AM
This morning my wife used her Toshiba e310 Pocket PC to set an alarm - it never went off when it was supposed to. Instead, when I powered on the unit, the alarm triggered. How useless is that? :x I double checked the time - it was all correct, but somehow the device was "locked up" until I pressed the power button. My wife's Pocket PC is quite "clean" - only a few third party games installed.
This has long been a known issue with the Pocket PC 2002 OS, and it still frustrates me when it happens. So I'm curious how wide-spread this issue is. Survey time! I'm also curious to know if any of you have figured out any patterns. We've taken this to Microsoft as MVPs several times, but we've been told they're having a hard time reproducing the problem (I can believe that - as far as I can tell, it's completely intermittent).
