| mobile 6.1 6.1 is mobile now available so I downloaded but since the Q dies not have office mobile i bought office mobile from Handango. Now when i try to install the free upgrade it says i have a newer version and to uninstall that version, which won't work because the update will read no version of office.
Any ideas on how to get around this |

Any ideas on how to get around this | Will it work if you install the Office Mobile before you install the 6.1? Does it install as an upgrade, so to speak, or does it do a complete wipe then install?
BTW, where did you get the 6.1? |

Anyone who has MW5 doesn't get in the action. It's a free upgrade on Microsoft site if you do have an earlier version that meets their spec's. |

If you have a version of Windows Mobile 5.0 that does not include Office Mobile, you're out of luck.
