Hi,

Im using an IPAQ 4150 on Windows CE 4.20 is there an update for the OS?
Also I downloaded Adobe Reader v2 for Pocket PC and it won't work for some
reason. Is there anywhere I can find out what software is supported by my
machine?

thanks

The 4150 actually runs Windows Mobile 2003 or PPC 2003. I don't think it ran
2003SE (Second Edition) If it offers a Landscape view, then it is SE.
PPC2003 is built on CE 4.2, but the other name(s) are more commonly used
when discussing compatibility. There was never an official upgrade to that
device, but it would not surprise me if bootleg (hacked, cooked) upgrades
are available, though they would not be 'legal' or supported.

If I recall correctly Adobe Reader V2 should work on your device. Don't
think it needed SE or better. If nothing else you could look around for the
V1 version. Many liked it better anyway.

The 4150 is WM2003 and there's no WM2003SE upgrade for it.

I recalled there was no upgrade, but I was too lazy to find mine in the
drawer, charge it and see if it was SE or not ;) Didn't think so, but that
was years ago :)
