VB5 CE toolkit, can you

I have never used this product, and do not have it at the moment, but the questions is, can I write applications for a CE based Palm computer (for example the E-10 Cassiopeia) as well as for CE handheld computers.

I thought that this toolkit would create valid apps in any windowsCE system, but there are hints about that it will not work for PDAs, Microsoft may say something, but dammed if I can find any info on their site!

Also, Any general impressions on using this product to develop apps would be appreciated.
thx all

thanks mcix,

That will teach me to search harder, I looked at this site and didn't check the FAQ's. Doh!!! I wonder why this is so, if its the same OS why will the same app not work. Typical MS.

on the second part, Have you used this toolkit, any impressions, comments, problems....

mcix

I have not used it as yet (Haven't had a 'real' reason)

You might try a posting to Microsoft's News Groups for Windows CE...

I believe it is: microsoft.public.windowsce
