synctel site sends you to handango to purchase - thats what i did - did not receive any special number or site to go to

i am disappointed with their response - that's life, i guess.




What part of this link copied directly from Synctel's website did you not understand?

Click here to purchase from Handango and enter product code: 18241


Did you enter the product code? If you entered this product code and Handango still sent you the wrong software, then you need to let Synctel know about this problem!!!

Dear Antonio,

The only way that I can ensure that you get the right software is by you searching our site and specifically designate your type of device. Once this is done, it should pull up all applications compatible to your device and from there you will search for the application.

I did this and Palmchess does not pull up as compatible with your device.

I also searched the type of download and I could only find the palmchess203pkt.exe file and a .zip file. Nowhere does this software show to come as palmchess203hpc.exe

Sincerely,
Wes Parnell

Have I told you how much I dislike Handango?

Anyway, I emailed my contact at Synctel this morning and told him about this problem, even gave him a link to this forum.....I'll let you know his response as soon as I receive one.

Chris - Yes, I noticed the quote awhile ago, but I didn't mention it because I thought you already knew about it ....errr, because I'm too modest!

I got it directly from a gentleman at Synctel, but he is no longer answering my emails and I have no idea why?
I will keep trying to get an answer for you.

Handango seems to have changed. It’s no longer possible to browse HPC products, but you can still purchase PalmChess for HPC by going to the following page:

http://www.handango.com/SoftwarePurchase.jsp

and entering code 18241. Alternatively, you can purchase the Pocket PC version which should provide the registration code which will also unlock the HPC version. The demo can be downloaded from:

http://www.synctel.com/Products/HPC/PalmChess

Any issues with purchasing or unlocking the demo can be resolved by contacting support@synctel.com.

Cheers,
John

Also there are issues with my email. Yahoo hosts my website and is supposed to forward emails (@synctel.com) to my regular email, but this has stopped working recently. The most reliable email address to use is synctel@yahoo.com.

Thanks,
John

Not much fun playing on a 25X25mm chess table with a VGA screen BsquarePHH. Found no options to enlarge the chess table. Did you?
