Summary: Excellent book.
Comment: This book is awsome! This book is for someone that has a strong C++ background but does not have to have experience with the windows api in order to begin programming on a CE box. If you know the windows API a lot of this book might be review. The book also does not go into a lot of depth about the architecture of windows CE. It also only skims over sections about bluetooth, smartphone, pocket pc and other technologies that you may want to use on your ce box. Along with this book you will probably want a reference book specifically on Embeded studio and on whichever technologies you are using. For the price and the coverage this cant be beat.

Summary: Good material for the buck, could be more compact and more
Comment: Maybe I would go typing everything in superlative about this book - if my wrists wouldn't hurt so much from trying to hold it. The book tries to "compete" with Petzold's Windows classic on the page count but material is enough to fill say 750 good pages or less.
For a book that needs to contain a lot of practical information (and this one does) it is a big handicap when you can't actually keep it even on your table without some stand.
Also I wish author took some courage to call the book Win CE 4 or at least mention C++ or "not managed" in the title. By seeing the title I was sure that it was just another replica of the Compact Framework book and wouldn't even browse it. So, I don't have any wish to see the size doubled up to include CRL, I just have the wish to see the adequate title for the non-CRL content.

Summary: Perfect Resource
Comment: This book is the absolute perfect resource for programming Windows CE Devices using C++ and Windows API calls. I started developing software for the Pocket PC using the .NET Compact Framework and found I couldn't do the things I needed to with C# and the Framework. C++ and Windows API calls, as explained by Boling in "Programming Microsoft Windows Ce .Net" has taught me how to program anything I want for a handheld device. The example code is wonderful. Thank you so much for this awesome resource.
