Intended Audience for This Book

Pocket PC Network Programming is written for software developers who understand the basics of writing Pocket PC applications in C/C++ and have written software for these devices before. If you have developed programs with Visual Basic for Windows CE, or have done any type of programming on the Windows platform, you should feel fairly comfortable with the material in this book. This book is not intended as an introduction to Pocket PC programming or the basics of Windows CE, but if you have previously written any type of application, you should be able to follow along without much difficulty. In addition, the final chapter covers topics specific to the future of networking applications using C# and the .NET Compact Framework for the Pocket PC.
