Handheld PC using WinCe 5.0


Handheld PC using WinCe 5.0 John Olbert

dotnet compact framework: Do you know of any handheld computer device that is currently available in
the USA that runs the WinCe 5.0 OS?

I have searched for a bit and have not found any item.

Thanks.

And what does "handheld computer device" mean? Pocket PCs and SmartPhones
running Windows Mobile 5 are all based on Windows CE 5.0 and they are all
handheld...

Actually I should have focused my question better. Will a device that runs
Windows Mobile 5 allow be to deploy WinCe NetCF2.0 App's using Vs2005
Professional? Will a device that supports Windows Mobile 5 likely supply the
support that the NetCF2.0 Framework needs? That is the main reason why I am
looking at a handheld PC. I just want it as a test bed for managed code
projects deployed from Vs2005 Professional.

Thanks.

Yes. In fact, that's just about the only set of devices that will do it
(those running Windows CE 5 are the only ones supporting .NET CF 2.0, right
now).

Again, "handheld PC" doesn't really have a meaning unless you mean "Handheld
PC", which was a Windows CE 3.0-based device or earlier, in which case the
answer is no.

Except I'm an idiot. PPC2003 SE also runs .NET CF 2.0 applications. In any
case, WM5 devices do run it.

....for the archives we might as well clarify that even non-SE PPC2003
devices are supported...

Cheers
