All:
Just to clarify. This is NOT a beta file.
The files that I send are pulled directly off of previously shipped devices
by standard manufacturers. This is something that anyone can do. This is
not a file that Microsoft owns and distributes. I provide the OEMInfo.xml
file as a means to enable our customers who are blocked by this missing
file. We are currently working with the OEM's to provide this file through
their standard support channels. Once that happens I will no longer provide
this file but instead will point users to their OEM's to secure this file.
If you have this file located on your machine we ask that you please seek
further Microsoft Reader activation assistance through our official support
channel located here:
http://support.microsoft.com/oas/default.aspx?LN=en-us&gprid=2748&x=9&y=5
On this website you can either find our toll free support number or an
address at which to email us. If the support representatives are unable to
resolve your issue you will eventually reach me or a member of my team for
further assistance with your issue.
We ask that you please follow this support channel so that we can accurately
track our Microsoft Reader issues and so that our Microsoft Reader staff can
focus on putting their efforts into continued Microsoft Reader development.
Thank you.
Sincerely,
Christine - Microsoft Reader Team
