Happy fasting to all Moslem who celebrate it. It will be a nice month to doing something new. So here there are. This is my first time for me to know about Mobile..Mobile..and Mobile. Yesterday I have a chance to try out the new mobile system called WM 5.0.
It's awesome to try out, hold and feel it this new operating system. You can see the article "getting touch with windows mobile 5.0 in user and developer perspective part 1" in my blog
Getting crazy to debug and testing my mobile app in Emulator (cause is too slow on my pc). So I try to search some tool to automate the unit testing process. Unfortunately I can't find unit testing for this kind application. however I find the new project called NCFUnit in source forge (so hope there will be come soon..)
Recently since there are no unit testing for .NET CF, so I do some old style, create new project, create a console application, copy my algorithm code and doing a test from there. Not simple but this is much better way to doing some unit testing in CF, rather than waiting "my slow emus"
Based on market research and the grown of mobile user. Microsoft will expand more intensively in mobile device especially in ms smart phone area.
Microsoft hopes that in the next following year more than 60-80% mobile user will use MS Smart phone.
Smart phone is just like usual mobile phone that comes with rich UI and rich application. One of the famous one in Indonesia is XDA mPhone. Based of that some open source application from Pocket PC is porting into Smart Phone platform using CF of course. Some of famous open source application that had been ported is Pocket Putty. Pocket Putty bring your telnet and SSH client into mobile devices, seem promising right?
