I've not got this working with my wm6.1 ipaq ppc (classic) with widcomm stack.
please let us know if you get it working with your device (hw&sw versions) and any comments.
Also if you find any gadgets that you recommend let us all know.
Samsung i600 is working perfectly, but there are very few sideshow gadgets and most of them suck .
The mobile app says it is a beta and has expired, does anyone know if there is a newer/better version out there I've been looking all over the place and cant find anything? Am I the only person who thinks sideshow is really cool???
i am also getting a similar message that beta has expired ... any help

Ive had the cab for this for ages, but only recently have I had vista to be able to use it.
Ive had it working well on:
HTC S710 VOX
HTC P3450 ELF
HTC P3450 ELFIN
Doesnt seem to work on my Polaris, doesn't seem to save my user name. Always get asked to "Selected Current User" and can never turn on any gadgets in windows. Anyone else with the same problem?
thats what the expired cab did for me. have you uninstalled the old one and reinstalled the new one?
i'm using it for the media centre gadgets, but i have TV Pack 2008 and they dont work with it :-(
i've been waiting years for sideshow and now the thing i want to use it with isnt suported

yeah tried to install the new one but doesn't work. Apparently Microsoft are working on this but I don't think they will release anything soon. They stated that "We have seen this issue, and are investigating the cause. It seems to be sporadic." Testing this on Windows 7 beta so don't know whether this is the cause or whether it might be the ROM I am using.
hello
i was wondering if i can get windows mobile 6 or windows mobile 6.1 the original version and not the cooked version. thanks a lot
No such thing - you would have to buy a phone (and it would not be a HTC Universal) with WM v6/6.1 installed already.
Cheers,
Steve.
thx StevePritchard!

I believe ftp://xda:[email protected]_radio_sign_25.65.30.04_1.58.21.23_Ship.exe might be what you are looking for.

Mind you, downgrade might NOT work, due to radio driver issues.
It happened to me, so I had to stay with 6.1
Pls guys help me regards to this matter ...
I searched on xda but didn't see if someone already posted this. If this is already old news, please delete this thread. Thanks.
Skype is no longer developed for Winmo: http://www.skype.com/mobile/
They are introducing Blackberry and Android: http://www.skype.com/mobile/reminder/
It still works on my HD2 though.
Skype 3.0 for Windows Mobile
Skype 3.0 for Windows Mobile can be found at the following link: http://www.skype.com/download/skype/windowsmobile/
There is no mention of Windows Mobile on the homepage; however Skype did sign a contract with Verizon Wireless and that is now up on Skype's web page. I can tell you it works on my Touch Pro 2 with Wi-Fi. I hope this helps; take care!
I was wondering if it was possible to upgrade my HTC Touch Pro 2 from windows mobile 6.1 to at least 6.5.5. If so, is this difficult to install and where can I get instructions to do so safely. I am on the Sprint network. Sprint has not given me a date where there phones will be upgraded to 6.5 and I do not want to wait as my phone crashes a lot and I constantly loose my contacts and all settings.
Thanks
