Microsoft Mobile – Hints and Tips

mike — Thu, 11 Feb 2010 06:00:56 +0000

The first place to go for getting the low-down on what’s hot & cool in the world of Windows Mobile is to visit the Windows Phone home page.

The getting started guide for WindowsMobile 6.5 can be found here.
Of course no-one will read that, so the thing you need to download is the Developer Resource Kit (DTK)

So once you have downloaded that, and installed it, the documentation can be found here

Oh, and if you want to know how easy it is to transfer from iPhone to Windows Mobile, you should read this

Help with a short survey
