>We had put together an app for a client that ran under Windows Mobile 6.0 and they ran it on a Pocket PC device. While the battery life was really good they decided that it was really too slow - they ended up purchasing netbooks and just adding a power inverter in their trucks so they could just plug them in between locations. But that might not work well if they can't set it down someplace while they enter data.
Do you mind sharing what Pocket PC (manufacturer and model) did your client use that ran WM 6.0? Thank you.
