I found at zack-zack.eu a device for windows CE users ...
(http://www.zack-zack.eu/html/detail/zackzack.html?itemId=2782)
I think it's can be very useful (because of the low price!) but I don't know if I can install other programs like Pocket Informant, OperaMobile Browser...
Can anybody help me?
Best Regards SavageDeath
I have one and like the size and weight but performance is lacking in terms of web speed; the 128m ram size limits its usfullness to only the simplest pages. Additionally it doesn't run all Pocket PC or WinCE programs. Lastly the physical keyboard has stopped working. Can still use the on-screen keyboard and usb port; but no clue as to what happen. IDon't think its a software problem. Plan to take it apart soon to see if there is a loose connection.
those netbooks are great for dos games

was wondering,
lot of pocket pc apps don't work on the smartphone, and i thought it was pretty much because of the screen resolution difference.
so, when the htc hurricane based phones start coming out, does this mean any windows mobile 2003 apps will work on the hurricane because is has 240x320 res?
what do you think???
it have a different cpu type thats why they often dont work
with 2005 more should be supported but it of cause dont change the issue with many pocketpc applications require the use of pen
and the reverse problem with smartphone applications not supporting the pen at all
This is just an sudden idea, I haven't test it ^^
The theory is emulating wm2005 on your PC and then drag it to your Magician take some pictures or clips and upload to Youtube to surprise everyone ^^
But how???
first of all you have to find the wm2005 emulator somewhere on microsoft website
Buy and install a software called Innobec SideWindow that can extend the desktop of your PC to use the pocket PC as a second monitor
SideWindow transforms your PDA into a virtual desktop extension, allowing you to drag applications such as your favorite picture viewer, media player and instant messaging applications to your PDA while freeing your main display's real estate for something more useful. (some word from Innobec site)
Now install wm2005 emu and drag it to your pocket PC. Sidewindow use finger or stylus to interact with the applications as a mouse so you can work with wm2005 on Magician as a REAL ONE
Have fun my friend (and sorry for my bad English )
But wht if PC is not available?
fun idea.
I said it an idea for FUN and for whom who like to experience wm2005 running on their Magician for some hours when they 're at home
hey guys (and girls where aplicable),
i got a question (a sorta dumb one). If a smartphone lik the iPAQ 514 Voice Messenger or the HTC Vox have windows mobile 6 standard does that mean they run regular windows mobile programs or smartphone versions? See the Cheeta/treo 750 has windows mobile standard ed. and is called a smartphone but it uses regular PPC programs, the other two mentioned before have the same wm6 but no touch screen. so i was wondering if that made a diference in the phones capabilities to use PPC Progs? I appreciate any answers as i am greatly puzzled and intregued buy this.
With WM6 they dispensed with the term "smartphone" in favour of WM 6 Standard. Too many non Windows Mobile phones were being called "smart phones" as well as PPC phones.
WM Standard has no support for touch screens and many PPC apps will not run on it.
WM Pro has touchscreens.
understanding versions...
so lemmie go over this... a ppc with a touch screen is said to run WM6 pro, a ppc without a touch screen is said to run wm6 standard the "smartphone" version. so what of the vox? it has all the capabilities of a full sized PPC without the touch screen so where would it and the ipaq 514 fit in? Because correct me if i'm wrong but dont they offer features like MS Office editing and production verus the others whose ability is limited to viewing or is it the WM6 platform that actually enables this?
You're right, its just a functionality of WM6. Any smartphone (i.e. non-Touch screen device) running WM6 has those same office capabilities and will be running WM6 Standard, not Professional.
As far as I know the two WM6 are one same core of the same OS but..
In the PPC version there is more advanced setup in the menus wich setup is locked in the Srtandard by default.
For example in the Standard there is no way to change the IP of the wi-fi manually.
And in the pocket pc there is some dll's, responsible for touchscreen operation .
yes but....
i do believe you might be correct on everything but the I.P setup for standard. i have an sda running wm6 and i can manually setup my wifi and change certain settings in the network config. Also the HP ipaq 514 that i've been researching also has the same features. see my big thing is i love he compact size of the smart phone but need the capabilities of the PPC. It wold be great if i could get the best of both. i know the O2 XDA stealth has that exact combo but they are hard to find and kinda pricey for thier age.
There are separate SDKs for Standard and Pro, so I think the differences run a little deeper.
well what to do?
well i guess my final questions then wuld be what kind of phone are:-
1/ O2's xda stealth
2/ HP's Ipaq 514
For those of you who have been working on early builds of Windows Mobile 6.5, I was wondering if you might know whether a program that was designed for WM5 (using the sidebar scrolling) can utilize the flick scrolling that I see working on the home screen for WM6.5. Does a program have to utilize this feature or is it native to WM6.5 so that any older program can use it? Thanks.
Not quite sure how the WM6.5 scrolling works, but I think it *should* make pages flick-scrollable (it seems acceptable for 2009...)
You can try out FTouchSL (www.ftouchsl.com), or SPB Pocket Plus (http://www.spbsoftwarehouse.com/products/pocketplus).
They both cost money.
Though I advise you to eventually upgrade to a newer phone, WM7 is coming up!
While I would like to wait for WM7, I need to update my old 8125 because the mini USB port broke and the RAM memory is too low to support certain programs. Programs such as Epocrates on the WM platform are still running with side bar scrolling (the interface on the iPhone is much nicer) and I'm wondering if finger scrolling would work even though Epocrates was made for scrolling using a Dpad (which many phones lack) or stylus friendly side bar scrolling. Esword is another program made the same way. Anyone try the early versions of WM6.5 with older programs that have such limitations?
Hi guys,
Recently I've aquired an windows embedded ce 6.0 r3 device. I've busted my *ss off trying to understand what this thing is all about but I'm getting really fustrated with the mixed explanations ht einternets throw at me. So far I haven't been able to come up with any decent results regarding what windows embedded can actually do for ME, not some high end superuser.
Okay, so after searching I know now, windows mobile and windows ce are not the same. Windows mobile runs on windows ce. windows ce cannot (without mods) run windows mobile apps. Windows ce apps can't be found freaking anywhere (i tried wince 2003/5 apps, but they all don't seem to work).
So, I'm close to giving up here. Is there something I'm missing? Can anybody tell me what the heck this thing CAN run?
What I was wondering, seen windows mobile is running 'on' wince, isn't it possible to flash windows mobile 6.5 ONTO it somehow? Because atleast that I'm familiar with..
any help would be greatly appreciated,
Dylan
P.S. Some specs of the thing are telechip arm11 800mh 256 ram 800x480 res 7" touch screen.
no? Nobody...?
Drive yourself nuts with this.......
OK, just for you, a specially adapted CE version of 5x5, originally released here.

It required a bit of fine tuning, as the menu appears across the top of the screen, not like Pocket PCs, along the bottom. I had to change the logic a bit, to get it to centre in the screen.
During Demo mode the caption of the second menu option should change from 'Reset' to 'Cancel'. I'm working on it.
Don't try this on your Phone device, the display will be awful. Use the link above. This is for CE ARM processors only. It's compiled for ARM4, the lowest common denominator, so it should run on any ARM powered CE device.
Right, fixed the menu state changes as mentioned above, as it's CE, it's back to good old SetMenuItemInfo() to do the donkey work. WinMo lets you send TB_SETBUTTONINFO messages, to do the same job, as they are actually buttons. CE is far more basic.
