On July 22, IBM updated the Java 1.3.1 Development Kit (javaintk) and the Run Time (javainrt).
The SciTech SNAP SE 2.1.5 was updated to include support for ATI Radeon 9000 Pro and the NVidia GeForce4 MX440 8X.
The OS/2 Gigabit Ethernet Fiber Adapter Driver now provides support for select Intel PRO/1000 Fiber Ethernet controllers (82542 / 82543GC / 82544EI).
Moreover, in the beginning of july the IBM High Rate Wireless Driver was released. The High Rate Wireless LAN Mini-PCI device driver provides OS/2 support for the 802.11b standard for wireless LAN (WLAN). This driver supports the Intersil Prism 2.5 chipset. (This driver appears to be a newer version of the driver for the IBM High Rate wireless PCMCIA card, though the description states its for the Mini-PCI wireless card in the T30).
On July 2, 2003, IBM released an updated USB Basic Device Support Package. This provides the basic OS/2 support required for USB devices that meets the USB 1.0 OHCI, USB 1.1 UHCI, or USB 2.0 EHCI specifications.

Additional overview of eComStation/Rus 1.1 was published (russian language).
The results of immediate OS development cycle show us the directions of product improvement: new drivers for peripheral devices and file systems are under construction; user interface was updated, hardware manufacturers license their drivers to eCS; network support was modernized; basic development tools and model applications was collected.
A sequence of installers is used to deploy eCS to user's computer.
eComStation survives thanks to three auxiliary forces:
- constant support of IBM corporation (weekly updates of basic OS),
- active participation of commercial companies,
- selfless work of individual developers.
