Backpack

[sjubb]

I have an XDA2 that I have upgraded to Windows mobile 2005.

Does anyone know if the backpack expansion pack (that allows a CF slot, second battery and VGA output) will work with windows mobile 2005.

I do not want to buy one and then find out that it will not work with my new Windows Mobile 2005.

Thanks in advance.

Cheers

Hi. I have the 2i on win05 and all works fine. the battery pack is fantastic. got mine on e-bay. The mirror function is a top pice of software, i play films from the cf card through my 2i onto a tft screen in the car for the kids. And the battery is a top up not an add on so you gain a 900ma extra battery (1 day with all radios on).
Hope this helps. gingerchristopher. :)

Hi thanks for the reply.

Is the 2i the Apline version of the XDA2?

I was not aware that you could get Windows mobile 2005 on it.

Did you upgrade it yourself from windows mobile 2003SE?

cheers

If you set the refresh rate to 00.01 and use a realy low grade movie.
Its not as bad as it sounds, it is watchable. eather that or just use the screen on your alpine.
