http://www.informationweek.com/news/showArticle.jhtml?articleID=205604334 Ouch! Excerpt: "Demand for Linux systems is such that some retailers are selling out.Last year, for instance, Wal-Mart for a time couldn't fulfill ordersfor Everex's $199 gPC. What's behind the growing interest in open source computing,long the preserve of self-styled computer geeks? Linux's increasingpopularity among mainstream PC users may in part reflect a backlashagainst Microsoft. The company's new Windows Vista OS has failed tocapture users' hearts and minds, let alone their wallets." I guess Linux advocates should be thankful to Microsoft for Windows Vista. More...

Hi, I'm .net c# app developer and new to the Windows mobile programming. I want to develop a language input program. I just want to get a general idea how possible it is to develop such a app. Let's assume that language is Japanes that you want to input on a smartphone(A Blackberry*with WM5 or 6) that you bought in US. I believe you can read Japanese on the smartphone by replacing the wince.nls file and do some registry tweaks. And for the input part, my application will take care of. So when you install the japanese input applicaiton, you will be able to switch between English and Japanese input, just like IME mode you select on windows xp and that allows you to input japanese or english in any application where keboard input is allowed. This is a smart phone, so let's assume that you've got the QWERTY keboard input on the phone. 1. How easy and possible is this? 2. Managed code(C#) or C++ for program this? 3. What libraries should I use? IMM, IME,,, ? 4. Any resources and samples on the web? Does the "Windows Mobile developers" WIKI has the information? I couldn't find it. Please help, or at least give me a starting point and direction for this app. Best regards, John C More... View All Our Microsoft Related Feeds

Hi All, I am looking around for standard RFID SDK mainly with anticollision features and ability to reader a large number*of tags in a short time. So far I have seen skyetek and*few china based SDKs. They all seem to be very low level mainly around C and strangely delphi :( Have you ever come across a standard SDK preferably around .Net*so that*low level detail can be ignored and we can concentrate on higher level application?
