[silk]

Hi

I'm thinking of developing a windows app for pda's - is there anyplace i can
see a list of devices andor OS that support the Compact Framework ?

Furthermore - if i developed an app and seperated the ui from the biz code
would i beable to use the biz code with a UI for a pc ?

Thanks in advance

The CF will run on all Pocket PC devices starting from PPC2000 and upwords
and devices that run WinCE.NET 4.2.

In most cases yes if you don't use any specific to the CE devices
functionality .

Alex gave you the good answere. I would like to give you my first
experiences:

I have successfully written a very simple Application for testing the
Display (switching thru red,gren,blue....) and painting some gradients.

This thing is working fine on the new HP 2210 (PPC2003) and the old
iPaq3630 with PPC2002 and .Net installed.

Yes.
and - very simple application (like mine ) will run on the desktop as
well! The same EXE, made for compactframework is running on the Desktop

but of course this won't be the case if you're using the IR-Port, GAPI
or other PPC-specials
