has windows mobile training been opened to non-retail folks?

i'm goin' mobile!

it’s been a windows mobile kinda day so far.

while skating around on various resources, i happened to take a peek at the terms & conditions for the 2007 windows mobile training program.

imagine my surprise when i saw the following verbiage, which includes a big huge change over previous years:

reading t&c is a hobby of mine. but if you're in business, you should be more than used reading the fine print on anything VERY carefully.

that highlighted phrase looks to me to add eligibility for the reward incentives of the windows mobile training program to non-retail employees.

now, the windows mobile training site has always been a cornucopia of information on a wide array of windows mobile devices. here & there you can even uncover some real gems regarding the business case for windows mobile & how to answer prospect concerns & questions.

so i’ve been registered for & used the windows mobile training site for a long time.

cuz the real value of a program like this isn’t in a free xbox 360 game…

which you can’t legally sell on ebay anyway, according to the t&c:

program pirates beware!

no kiddos…

the real value has always been getting additional free training & information about windows mobile & the particular implementations of it on various devices, so that you can actually use that knowledge to help your customers make the right decision to help meet their business needs.
