Windows Mobile 6.1 SDK

Question

Hi,

I would like to develop an application for HTC Touch Diamond, which has Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional. I wonder if I can use Windows Mobile 6 SDK, or if I need to download Windows Mobile 6.1 SDK. If so, where can I download WM 6.1 SDK?

Thanks for reading my thread,
Sam

Answer 1

 

There's no Windows Mobile 6.1 SDK since it doesn't really expose anything new to developers, so 6.1 devices use the 6 SDK.  Though there are Windows Mobile 6.1 devices images available for download.

Answer 2

Hi again,

I know that Windows Mobile 6.1 is for SmartPhone only. Is that correct? If so, do I need to download and use Windows Moblie 6 SDK for Pocket PC(Professional) or for SmartPhone(standard)?

Thanks,
Sam

Answer 3

 

6.1 exists for both the smartphone devices (Windows Mobile Standard) and the Touch Screen devices (Windows Mobile Professional).  The Diamond is a Windows Mobile Professional device since it has a touch screen. So you will want the SDK for Windows Mobile Professional.
