In the morning, participants were instructed on the .NET Compact Framework and Windows Mobile SDK. In the afternoon, they worked in teams and, with the one-on-one guidance of their Microsoft instructors, they programmed their Dell Axim PDA's."</i><br /><br /><img src="http://www.pocketpcthoughts.com/images/web/2003/parekh-20070426-NTCC2007.jpg" /><br /><br />While I'm a little surprised to see (a) a one-day competition for folks that don't know how to program mobile devices; and (b) Dell sponsoring this event, it's nevertheless good to see such publicity for Windows Mobile.
