Get Started with Mobile Dev

We're delivering some sessions this quarter on how to build applications with Windows Mobile 6 and I wanted to provide some links to help you get started. Although I will be doing my development with Visual Studio 2008 you can also use VS 2005 with the Mobile 5 SDK as well. To build a development environment here are some links:

• Try Visual Studio 2008 Professional (download a 90 Day trial copy here...)
• Visual Studio 2008 Service Pack 1 with .NET 3.5 sp1
• Windows Mobile 6 Refresh SDK
• Mobile 6.1.4 Emulator Images
• Virtual Hands On Labs for Mobile

Some related links with additional resources include

• Developer.WindowsMobile.com
• Windows Mobile Team Blog
• Windows Mobile Developers Wiki
• Windows Mobile Developer Center
• MyMobiler - Share your Mobile Screen on your PC
• Visual Studio Magazine article on Mobile Deployment
• Andy Wigley does Sync Framework

By the way, look for some QuickTip Screencasts coming soon to help you get started. Stay Tuned!
