MARK YOUR CALENDARS: Part 10 of Windows Mobile Application Development Series is coming up on November 19: Windows Networking

Please join us for part 10 of our 24-part Webcast series on Windows Mobile Application Development. This week, Andy Wigley, co-author of the Windows Mobile Development Handbook, will talk about networking. In this webcast, you learn how to create a network connection in code and how to discover if you have network connectivity. We look at the design of applications that need to be network aware and strategies for creating applications that can operate when disconnected from the network and then sync up data when network connectivity is restored. We also compare the options for transferring data over a network connection, which include ActiveSync, Microsoft SQL Server merge replication, remote data access (RDA), SQLClient, Microsoft Synchronization Services for ADO.NET, Windows Communication Foundation (WCF), SOAP-based Web services, RESTful data services, and Microsoft Message Queuing (MSMQ). We explain the benefits and shortcomings of each sync technology and demonstrate many of them so you can select the right solution for your data synchronization needs.

This week's webcast will air on Wednesday, November 18 at 10 PM PST. To register for this webcast, go to: https://msevents.microsoft.com/CUI/WebCastEventDetails.aspx?EventID=1032393505&EventCategory=4&culture=en-US&CountryCode=US.
