My Internet Notebook

Just downloaded and played with Microsoft PocketPC 2003 Device Emulator technology preview. Overall first impression is pretty good. Easyto install and setup. I loaded AvantGo MBA client and salesforce.com Offline Edition onto the emulator, and it works without a glitch. The emulation speed and screen resolution seem to be two areas that could use some improvement.

If you want to use it, here is a simple five step process I went through:

1. Download and install ‘PocketPC 2003 Device Emulator’
2. Register device emulator (either from Programs shortcut or command line)
3. Start device emulator manager
4. Start one of the device emulators
5. Start ActiveSync (3.7.1 or above) and use “Get Connected” to establish a partnership between emulator and ActiveSync.
