What PocketPC do you own?

If you have a new PocketPC, as of the year 2002 or sooner, then you'll want to download applications built for the ARM/StrongARM/XScale CPU or for the PocketPC2002 Operating System.

But he said, "thank you, I understand what you said." which means... HE UNDERSTOOD WHAT I SAID!

You don't have to reply to every thread you look at. Just like in the PocketQuake forum where you replied with one word to a two week old thread that was resolved, simply because you want to reply. That's like how Alltel mailed me a bill for 20 cents. They could have just NOT SENT ME THE BILL and the 37 cent postage they kept from doing that would have covered it!

LOL! My grandmother once said, "my thinker's not workin'." It was hilarious. It's become a family phrase.
