The chatter
In this, the first (inaugural (primordial)) episode of TinyThings, I went up to Redmond, Washington to visit Mike Hall in his office and chat about everything.
Since this is the first episode, and since I'm assuming that there are some (quite a few (billions?)) of people in the world who don't know a whole heck of a lot about developing for devices using various flavors of Windows, I wanted to get the bird's eye, introductory view of the landscape from Mike, and he delivered.
What you can expect from this episode
- You'll finally know just exactly what Windows CE is
- You'll finally know just exactly what Windows XP Embedded is
- You'll finally know just exactly what Windows Mobile is
- You'll learn a bit about Windows Mobile 5.0, why it's nifty, and why you're lame for not using it
If you haven't developed for devices before, and if you'd like to get a head start, then this episode should make you happy.
In the middle of the interview, as will be standard procedure from here on out, we break to hear a gadget review from Rob Miles. In this episode, he gives us his impression of the Gizmondo.
