Why is my "Designed for Windows Mobile" missing?

[Guest afhstingray]

I got a brand new M5000 frm orange last week, and the rectangle below the camera is just blank black space

What happened to the logo?? its not really a big issue, but i was wondering why its not there when you can clearly see it on orange's promotional pics

and the other universal devices sold by other operators

Microsoft probably expect a royalty payment for using it. The SP5 doesn't have it either.

[Guest afhstingray]

lol......'

i dont think so..... i mean, copies of windows XP come with the designed for xp sticker..

[Guest gcarte]

if you look at the picture with the three views you can see the sticker if you click on the zoomed in picture no logo???

[Guest afhstingray]

hehe well since there is enpty space maybe i should put one of those "Intel inside pentium 4" stickers on it.......

or the winxp sticker

They're just pointing out that it isn't extraordinary for a Windows Mobile device NOT to have "Designed for Windows Mobile" on it.

...and is that all you can say on the subject ?

Can you use your MVP status to get to the bottom of this ?

This seems to be a sea change in product specification to me ?

;) :D

oh okay, do those devices just have blank rectangles as well?

hehe this isnt really a big issue, but i was just curious cos the other versions of the universals seem to have it

[Guest stanthebiker]

The MDA Pro has 'Designed for Windows Mobile' under the camera.

[Guest afhstingray]

yep...and the prototype devices, they have a pretty colour one, like the dell x50.

i wonder how some operators devices have them and some dont. wouldnt tht need like seperate manufacturing or something
