3-2 Introducing Windows CE .NET 4.2
Windows CE .NET 4.2
Microsoft Windows CE .NET version 4.2 is an update to Windows CE
.NET, the successor to Windows CE 3.0. Windows CE .NET expands
the Windows CE-based operating system. It combines the reduced
code base of Window CE and the look and feel of a typical desktop PC
for device mobility and portability.
Window CE .NET adds enriched and powerful capabilities, including
faster performance, the latest technologies for browsing and
multimedia, and extensive interoperability between devices, PCs,
servers, and Web services.
Windows CE .NET version 4.2 features include:
!
improved security
!
enhanced multimedia and browsing
!
support for new applications and services.
Your MobilePro does not have a hard disk drive. The Windows CE
.NET 4.2 operating system and preloaded applications are deployed on
a Read-Only Memory (ROM) module; files that you work on are
stored in Random Access Memory (RAM) on a RAM module.
Linking with your host PC to synchronize your data enhances the
power of your operating system. For more information about setting up
your MobilePro for synchronization, see Chapter 1.
Using Windows CE .NET 4.2
Windows CE .NET 4.2 operates similar to standard Windows
operating systems on desktop or notebook computers. However, some
actions are executed differently, as indicated in the following sections.
Tapping
Your MobilePro comes with a stylus, a pen-like device that allows you
to touch, tap, or double tap objects on the MobilePro touch screen. The
touch, tap, and double tap act just like a point, click, and double click
of a mouse.
