Default Re: Pocket PC Money 05

The first version of the client was farmed out; all the rest have been done
in house.

A month ago, the MVPs were saying "end of October".

Two months ago, the MVPs were saying "end of September".

I seem to recall that previous versions of Money for Pocket PC were contract
jobs farmed out to some small ISV somewhere. If that's still true, they
wouldn't be working on the QFE, would they? So what's the *real* cause for
the delay?

(I want to believe that the delay is because Money 2005 for Pocket PC is a
ground-up rewrite that is incredibly cool and amazing, in contrast to the
merely adequate previous versions. I want to believe that, I really do. But
it gets more difficult every day.)

Another MVP has posted end November.

The guessed reason for the delay is that all hands have been turning out the
QFE that is available right now and hopefully fixes the great majority of
problems that we have been facing.

Default Pocket PC Money 05

Ok, so where is it?

It has been a few months and still nothing.....I just hope that it has more
power to it or an improved and updated look even VGA support.

Does anyone know what this new verison can do and why such a LONG wait!????
