I'm afraid the answer is that J601 (and later) require Windows CE 4.20 and we 
won't be doing the considerable work to get it to work on earlier versions of 
wince.

Arrgh. i completely sympathise with the lack of resources you have to
make such things possible:( i expect i am in the same boat with my old
iPaq 3870 though. i hope at some point J is successful enough that you
can spawn off a legacy version into an open source project which can
be more accommodating to compatibility related issues. Quite a serious
issue all around and getting more so day by day.

i do wonder if a portable Linux target would not be a more stable
target though? i would prefer to buy into such a device than remain
indefinitely on the Micro$oft escalator. Always having to buy new
hardware is not good ecology. And it limits what we, in turn, can make
available to our clients.

Hopefully ISI will never require me to go to an "Activated" version of
MS Windows in order to use/develop J under Windows. Or at least they
would keep parity with Linux version betas in such an eventuality.

Is Linux development advancing enough to become the primary platform soon?

Sorry, i just had to wince at this one.
