Developing for Pocket PC

[Drpoulette]

I'm thinking of getting involved in developing some apps for pocket pc, but I've never developed anything before in my life. Any suggestions on learning how to do it?

If you've never done ANY programming at all, I'd suggest getting a book on Visual Basic, and downloading (for free from MS) the Embedded Visual Toolkit. It comes with a development environment for VB and C++. If you stick with VB, you should be able to get up to speed fairly quickly.

I started out with C++... after that, everything else was pretty easy to pick up... the hard part is the first language...

I dont think eVB is still supporting Axim X3.

Microsoft stopped support of eVB on Pocket PC 2003

In Visual Studio.Net Microsoft has provided the infrastructure for development for Pocket PCs and Mobile Devices.
