Problem is that it works not anymore on Windows Mobile 5 or 6.

I want to develop (fpGUI Toolkit) for my iQue M5 PDA which runs
Windows Mobile 2003 2nd edition. So it should be ok.

Anybody know where I can get a Windows Mobile 2003 2nd Edition
emulator? I'm not sure if it's a good idea to try and run apps
directly on my PDA first time round. The only link I could find in
Microsoft's site is for Windows Mobile 6 SDK (which I think includes a
emulator).

PS:
I'm a total newbie to PocketPC development - I've never done it before.

Regards,

I may be wrong, but it's possible that the only solution is going back
in time and get them from MS website =)

There are instructions here to install the latest emulator:

http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/Windows_CE_Interface#Installing_and_Using_the_Pocked_PC_Emulator

Windows CE is a very stable platform, so this should give a very good
idea of how it will work on your device.

I found Windows Mobile 2003 2nd Edition image (emulator) on the
Microsoft site. I'm not sure what's the difference between them, but
am currently downloading the first link. The WM5 and WM6 emulators
require Windows XP and I only have Windows 2000.

This images are for old x86 emulator, not ARM emulator.

You can safely develop on WM5 or WM6 emulator. The program will run on
WM2003 in most cases. You can test it on real WM2003 device from time
to time.

That's good to know, thanks Yury.

PS:
Any change you can email me a copy of PocketConsole (or PocketCMD -
not sure if it's the same thing).

If it's really freely redistributable, maybe we could host it
somewhere, what do you think?

The reviews I read simply said it was free, they didn't mention
anything about th redistribution. But as I mentioned, the original
site is down, so I can't check.

Problem is that it works not anymore on Windows Mobile 5 or 6.

It works with some registry tweaks like:

To make PocketConsole run on Windows Mobile 5, you have to change the
registry entry

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\Console\OutputTo

to value 0.

It dont work well on VGA devices...

Why not simply use Lazarus. I just did a (very simple) test with
crosscompiling to CE using Lazarus. It was _very_ easy.
