I am a developer working on the Universal Remote Control project for the Pocket PC.

I want to try my applications on the device emulator before I install them on the Pocket PC.

I have the Microsoft Device emulator which comes with Visual Studio 2005, Active sync 4.1, WM Developer Resource Kit and Windows Mobile 5.0 Pocket PC SDK installed on my machine.

I also have a USB IRDA device attached to my machine.
A Serial port IRDA device is not available with me.

The device emulator does not show me any option to connect to the USB ports.
It needs the IR device to be connected on either the COM1 or COM2 or COM3 ports.

Is there any possibility of using my USB IRDA device with the emulator to try my applications?

Please tell me how to proceed with this.

No you cant use them, you should develop it using a pocket pc device & deploy & debug on the device
