CE 4.2 and Pocket Word - Excel

wcurling — Thu, 20 Nov 2008 06:29:06 -0600

Is there away to have Pocket Word and Pocket Excel running on a 900C with CE 4.2? Maybe the other way around and flash the ROM on a 900 so it has CE 4.2? I saw a advertised a 900C with Pocket Word and Pocket Excel on eBay and thought if this could be done I could have the best of both worlds. I know these are probably very off the wall questions but I like Pocket Word and Excel and nothing beats the "instant on" and portability of my NEC MobilePro 900s.

UpdatingMobilePro 900 OS

wcurling — Sat, 25 Oct 2008 12:21:35 -0500

Is there a way to update the 900 with CE Net 4.2? I like being able to use Excel and Word but thought I may get some improvement with the Internet connection.

Thanks in advance for any advice or suggestions.

Great forum, I am very glad I found this site.

My questions are regarding Internet speed / system speed improvment and software. Maybe Rich Hawley will have insight on this issue.

I have a 900 and a 900C with the following software

900C

Windows CE.NET 4.2

Firmware P530_42 1.8.5

Build Date May 6,2004

PIC Firmware ID 4.19.7

Bootloaded Version 4.5.1-6

2000-2003 BSQUARE.CORP.

Wireless connection that works perfectly.

It's been many months since I last posted here (heck when did the forum start to look like this!!)...I downloaded some newsletters (thanks John!, always a good read), and noticed an 8/16/08 post by John asking if maybe the ride is over? Yeah, I'd say it has been for a while!!!

HELP!! My 790 will not connect to the server. I want WIFI!!!

bp21702 — Thu, 28 Aug 2008 08:53:54 -0500

SO I bought this software (orinoco wifi card) off ebay.

I installed the software onto my mobilepro 790 via cf card.

It is picking up on hotspots, but I can't seem to get Expolrer to pickup on the server so that I can actually view webpages.

I am a cluts when it comes to computer configutations and things of that nature. I need the "MobilePro 790 Wifi Connection FOR DUMMIES" version if you can help.

I don't know what I've missed or what I'm doing wrong.

Newbie52 — Wed, 06 Aug 2008 09:50:02 -0500

I have succumbed to the lure of the Asus EEE PC and now have a 790 for sale. In excellent condition with a spare battery, sync cable, manual, and power cord. Contact me if you're interested and we can talk price ... I'm in the Midwest & we can factor mailing cost into the cost.

Thanks!

Will Type II PC Card work with Win CE?

Rosecrans — Mon, 16 Jun 2008 10:23:34 -0500

I'd like to find a way to add a USB port to my NEC 780. I understand that the Windows CE system will not recognize a Type II PC Card with a USB port. Is that correct? Are there cards that do? Is there any other way to add USB?
Thanks.

Mobile Pro 790

Newbiez — Sat, 14 Jun 2008 08:26:41 -0500

I recently acquired a Mobile Pro 790 that I was planning on using for writing. I powered it up with a full charge, wrote some material and saved it to the device( and I know I know I should have backed it up on a card), powered down and it looks like in the meantime the battery went completely dead. I recharged it and when I turned it on much to my dismay I got the "setup your mobile pro" screen. It has happened every time the battery drains, its like it wipes its little board clean.
Is this pretty standard with the Mobile Pro ? or is there some setting I don't know about.... ?

spider solitaire for mobilepro 780/790/900

Csquare — Thu, 29 May 2008 13:38:35 -0500

[?]John, do you or maybe even Rich (or anyone else for that matter) know of a spider solitaire game that is compatible with the 780/790/900? Aside from the usual uses, my wife is addicted to the game on her pc, but she relaxes with solitaire on her 790. She was asking about putting the spider version on her machine the other day, but I can't seem to find a version anywhere that will work on it. Any thoughts?

Never give up, never surrender!

thetiptonian — Mon, 07 Apr 2008 13:48:17 -0500

I'm still looking for a cheap ($30-ish shipped) NEC 750/770. It's for my 4-year old (5 this May) daughter. Anyone who has one around gathering dust and would like to contribute to the education of a young one, please contact me. I'd also consider a trade if I have anything someone wants (off the top of my head - a working Sony Clie TJ-37 with Wifi, an old Newton 130, maybe some other things if I dig deep enough.)

Let me know. Thanks!

900C Calibration Problems

Boo — Wed, 05 Mar 2008 02:31:05 -0600

Hi all,

My 900c running CMONEX's last custom OS release is having touch screen calibration problems.

When I power off my MP and power it back on, my calibration is all over the place (I can't close windows without clicking way off the screen). This happens quite often (90%) of the time. It is especially bad when I have just recharged. I always have to fix calibrate my touch screen.

What could be causing this? I am hesitant to say it is the custom OS.... When I got my MP 900c, I updated the OS pretty quickly, so it could have been a problem since day one.
