They also say in the forum it runs on Sigmarion 3 or any device that has 64mb system memory.
Well first off it's CE .net 4.1, the installer doesn't work on Sig3, most ram I can make available with MUI Installed is about 60Mb.
And it doesn't run on Sig even if you get round the cab issue.

bummer!
I'll try it out soon on mine ...

I hate to ask this, but does it matter? And I don't mean to be facetious or argumentative. I realize that there are some HPC2000 users who need incredibly sophisticated features in their wp, but even TM 2002 satisfied the vast majority of handheld needs, which is probably why TM stopped development.
it does matter to some - I didn't like TM2002 at all. 2006 fixed many many things, and can finally open more than one document
(ftw!
) and on ce.net it handles the accented chars finally..
I actually like using 2006, I didn't feel so with 2002.
of course it is still a heavy app, but at least it can finally do basic things
(and not just advanced shit I don't need as much
) such as the above mentioned ones. and even though it is a heavy app, it runs quite well on sig3 and flies on smartbook, bit sluggish on 900c, but quite usable still.
I mainly need TM for the document compatibility. and if I wanted to write a paper for university as it needs some - I think quite basic - features that pocketword doesn't offer. other than that pocketword wins 90% of the time
this is like the IE4 vs netfront thing - without netfront i feel naked on a hpc2000 device, same for the lack of TM in terms of document handling.
P.S: due to this, rev 397 is a godsend on some of my MIPS devices. though 2006 did vastly improve on document compatibility too..

But 2008 now has presentationmaker (equivilant to powerpoint) which is a totally new app and as far as I am aware there isn't other options that allow presentation design and MS office compatability.
there are other options, but softmaker's offering may be more compatible, we will see
