Problem is that it works not anymore on Windows Mobile 5 or 6.

I want to develop (fpGUI Toolkit) for my iQue M5 PDA which runs Windows Mobile 2003 2nd edition. So it should be ok.

Anybody know where I can get a Windows Mobile 2003 2nd Edition emulator? I'm not sure if it's a good idea to try and run apps directly on my PDA first time round. The only link I could find in Microsoft's site is for Windows Mobile 6 SDK (which I think includes a emulator).

PS:
I'm a total newbie to PocketPC development - I've never done it before.

Regards,

I may be wrong, but it's possible that the only solution is going back in time and get them from MS website =)

There are instructions here to install the latest emulator:

Windows CE is a very stable platform, so this should give a very good idea of how it will work on your device.

It works with some registry tweaks like:

To make PocketConsole run on Windows Mobile 5, you have to change the registry entry

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\Console\OutputTo

to value 0.

It dont work well on VGA devices...

You can safely develop on WM5 or WM6 emulator. The program will run on WM2003 in most cases. You can test it on real WM2003 device from time to time.

That's good to know, thanks Yury.

PS:
Any change you can email me a copy of PocketConsole (or PocketCMD - not sure if it's the same thing). From reviews on the internet I believe it is free, but the original website doesn't exist anymore or is currently down.

If it's really freely redistributable, maybe we could host it somewhere, what do you think?

I used this program in Brazil, but then I moved and left my copy and suddenly found out it doesn't work on the new emulators, so I don't have an accessible copy any more (or rather I have on another continent).

The reviews I read simply said it was free, they didn't mention anything about th redistribution. But as I mentioned, the original site is down, so I can't check.

I found Windows Mobile 2003 2nd Edition image (emulator) on the Microsoft site. I'm not sure what's the difference between them, but am currently downloading the first link. The WM5 and WM6 emulators require Windows XP and I only have Windows 2000.

This images are for old x86 emulator, not ARM emulator.
