I dropped a tool on my Pocket PC Tuesday and destroyed the screen. This is like the third or fourth one I’ve destroyed since I started using RCT. Of course panic sets in as I realize that I still have 15 appointments left this week. Anyone who has been through this knows there is no quick way to get up and running with a new Pocket PC because of RCT’s inane copy protection schemes. Of course they’ll get you a new code as soon as you remove the program on your old unit. But then there is no way to do that with a destroyed screen. That means you have to send the old unit back in before they’ll give you a new activation code. To their credit, they’ll do that if you supply them a tracking number as proof that you’ve returned it. Of course that would mean buying a new unit, boxing up the old one, take it to UPS, get the tracking number, get back home, then find someone on the end of a phone at RCT that can get you the new activation code- all before the first morning’s appointment. Not a chance. <o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> Of course there is another small detail I left out. Buying a new Pocket PC means a newer operating system, which means a $230 upgrade charge to RCT to get the new activation code. *Sigh*<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> What I decided to do was use a spare Pocket PC that my son had and download the Tune Lab software with fully functional demo while I decided what to do about the RCT. Before the day of tunings was over I was on the phone to Tune Lab and made my $340 purchase. I love it. Plus I can port it to any other Pocket PC I want (that has my name as the owner) without having to get a new activation code! No more worries!!<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> It isn’t as idiot proof as RCT but seems to be more functional. The learning curve was little steep, I thought, but I like the tuning interface better than RCT.  And the tunings sound great (I’m using Coleman 11). Add in the much better price and the peace of mind of being able to have a backup system- I’m so happy and just wanted to tell you all about it!<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> I’ve ordered a new screen ($50) from Ebay for my old unit. I think I’ll keep RCT as a back up. ;-)<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> Dean<o:p></o:p> <U1:PERSONNAME u2:st="on">Dean May</U1:PERSONNAME>             cell 812.239.3359 <o:p></o:p> PianoRebuilders.com   812.235.5272 <o:p></o:p> <U1:PLACE u2:st="on"><U1:CITY u2:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on"><st1:City w:st="on">Terre Haute</st1:City></U1:CITY> <U1:STATE u2:st="on"><st1:State w:st="on">IN</U1:STATE></st1:State>  <U1:POSTALCODE u2:st="on"><st1:PostalCode w:st="on">47802</U1:POSTALCODE></st1:PostalCode></st1:place></U1:PLACE><o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> </blockquote> <o:p> </o:p> <div class=MsoNormal align=center style='text-align:center'> <hr size=2 width="100%" align=center> </div> I am using the free version of SPAMfighter for private users.
