Windows Phone Thoughts: iPAQ 1910 Petition Site

Well, we all saw this coming the moment HP said they wouldn't offer a Windows Mobile 2003 upgrade for the 1910. Just like the Toshiba petition, I support this one fully and have signed it. I have a 1910 that my wife uses now, and considering how new the device is, I find it unacceptable that no upgrade is being offered. The 16 MB ROM limitation is not a valid excuse - Pocket PC 2002 didn't fit into it either, and users were more than happy to use up RAM to get the components they needed. It was frustrating enough that HP never offered a Windows Media Player 8.5 update for it - I consoled myself by thinking that when Windows Mobile 2003 came out, I'd get the WMP9 on there. No dice. Bad HP, bad! :evil:

"The Hewlett Packard (HP) company, purveyors of fine handheld computing devices, is apparently under the misconception that owners of the HP iPaq 1910 device are not power users and, as such, are not worthy of the same software support as other fine iPaq devices. First, HP decided not to make available the Windows Media Player 8.5 update for the HP iPaq 1910 even though the Microsoft update was available around the time of the 1910's date of availability. Second, they have not made any maintenance updates available to 1910 owners while offering multiple updates to other iPaq devices of the same vintage. Lastly, and the primary reason for this petition, HP currently has no plans to provide an upgrade to the Windows PPC 2003 operating system for the HP iPaq 1910 device."
