      I already have a Blackjack II. How do I upgrade from Windows mobile 6.0 to 6.1?

      I attempted to upgrade my BlackJack to 6.1. The software does not run as prescribed in the instructions and the upgrade fails when the app thinks I already have a later version than 6.1. Why would a programmer even write that error into the installation app. this is the latest version.
