hi just wrote a nasty email to SE stating my discontent of lack of support for Win 98 and WinNT. Who else has this problem? I just want to start chaining and really highlight this issue to SE. Truly useless this phone, unless this gets fixed.

OK I can understand why you might ask for Win NT support, but why should any company invest money in Win 98 support?? At the end of the day, although there might be alot of people still using Win 98 its old and totally out of date OS. There have been 3 OS since then!, 4 if you count Win 98 SE as a OS.

Win98 is still quite popular cause of its stability at home. nevertheless, I am really more concerned with the support for WinNT

NT is even more ancient than 98, even Microsoft is officially going to stop supporting it in a year, there is *no* point for a company to develop software to it anymore.
And it doesnt even support USB for christ's sake, how are you going to connect the p800 to it? Why don't you go ahead and ask for DOS-support while u r at it, geez.

Im afraid I agree totally that you shouldn't really have to have support for NT/9x.
However it does really surprise me that with a bit of playing you can't get it to work.
Obviously NT + USB ain't gonna happen, but can you definately not get it working with BT?
It does really surprise me you can't get 9x to work also.

@cube4all...it would help if we knew what problems you're having with Windows.
If it's sync problems... have you tried downloading the updated sync software from SE support?

Well, i use an amiga it home on os3.9 which came out in '99, there will never be support 4 that so why should there be support 4 on older os than that? I also have debian gnu/linux and people are constantly developing in new support 4 new things which are are FREE to install. If i was u i would upgrade your os for a better supported one
