I am visually impaired.  My palm pilot allows me to select the size of
font I need to easily read whatever is on the screen.  Can the pocket
pc 2002 do the same?  Can you select large fonts?  I am specifically
looking at the Toshiba e310

Has a utility which allows you to hack the system font size to make
the default larger. Is this an acceptable answer for your question?

Thank you so much. That is good to know.  You know how the palm
devices already have the three different levels of font to choose
from?  Does the pocket pc come with that or do you have to download
the font hack?

Thanks so much!

Hello,

After going over the Toshiba website, and discussion groups, I've
found no mention to be able to change the font size without using a
registry hack, or other software to accomplish this task. I recommend
purchasing a hack product which is designed to unlock different
features (read the link below) as it offers much more than just a font
hack, and I'm sure other parts of the software will be helpful to you.
Also this is the safest way to go about this because if you're not
familiar with the registry settings, you could seriously mess
something up. Good luck!
