    tuning with a pocket pc?

    I purchased HPTuners about a year and a half ago.
    and use it for data logging in my nitrous fed gto. (and my roommates nitrous camaro)

    my laptop recently died,
    can I load HPT onto a Windows 2000 based pocket pc that I was just given?

    I dont think a pocket pc even has enough storage space for the actual program much less for the actual tune files. I think the tune files are like 1.8meg per file.

    How much internal storage space does a pocket pc have? Does it have a mini usb port?

    the Pocket PC OS is different than w2k or wxp etc.... so it won't work

    Unless it has the ability to actually load an all out desktop on it, and the store space... then it would probably work

    There are drivers for the usb-serial device for CE and up... hptuners itself.. well, that would have to be rewritten. But yeah.. the mpvi would "work" on a ppc..

    Best option would probably be an Asus EeePC if you're looking for something ultra-compact....

    Personally, I use a macbook with Windows Vista running on it
