Adding or Removing Programs

Programs added to your device at the factory by default are stored in ROM (read only

memory). You cannot remove them, and you will never accidentally lose them. You can

install any other programs created for your device, as long as your device has enough

memory. The most popular place to find software for your device is on the XV6600WOC

Web site

http://www.microsoft.com/mobile/pocketpc
