Is anyone else having issues activating MS Reader on the Tilt? I've been unable to do this in the WM6 or WM6.1 versions. It "goes thru the motions" without any errors, but the software is not, in fact, activated.

I don't know if you managed to get Reader activated yet or not, but if you haven't let me tell you something;
activation is done via a cab file that d/ls to your dev and installs.

If you enable the ability to capture cabs instead of them deleting after install you can save the activation cab file.

I've had mine saved for a couple years now simply because I had so many issues with activation, not the least of which was not enough activations allowed by MS.

Problem solved!
