what about the build in apps (PIM etc.) aren't they all Japanese too?

Do i remember right that WM2003 still had the problem of reconfigure/reinstall or restore all if battery runs empty?  This was first solved with WM5?

The Opera  version which runs is: Opera 8.0 for Windows Mobile, Smartphone (WM 2003)?

A short german descrition of the Flora can be found here: http://www.pocketpc-salzburg.at/modules.ph...e=print&sid=590

Does WPA encryption work on the WLAN?

Thanks

Hi Georg
WM2003se does forget your settings if its internal back up battery goes flat - about 2 days after main battery loses its charge.  I use the included back up utility or just keep my 'install files/ scripts in the Flora's flash memory- for permanent storage.

I used Opera 8 - I believe 8.6 for Pocket PC will run even better.

All the internal software is in Japanese - picture, word and excel are easy to get on with but I think the pims does things 'different alphabet' - this can be tweaked with a reg hack - I just use 3rd party UK software.

Does WPA work ?? - I've only used it on open networks - WEP DNS WINS IP & VNC all a peer in the network configuration settings.  To get WPA (or) pure English language support - it would take some one who knows more about these things than my newbie self.

I have found 'hacks' on the web  - but asking a Japanese student - is far easier ;-)
