Default Basic4ppc Updated, On Sale

http://www.basic4ppc.com/

"Basic4ppc is the easiest and most affordable way to develop applications for Pocket PC / Windows Mobile devices. Basic4ppc Version 3 released! Compiles to Windows / Device executables (EXE files). Built-in database support."



I posted on Basic4PPC in the past, however with a new version and a limited time offer on pricing, now may be a good time to look into it again if you were intrigued the first time!

You mentioned that Basic4PPC was 'On Sale'. Does this mean the $29 price tag is the sale price or is there some other discount?

Great development environment for PPC. Makes it easy to develop your own applications. Good price. Great enhancements in version 3.

How is the performance of apps compiled to executable with this package vs say native C++ compiler etc? Any benchmarks?

Hi all,
The 29$ is the sale price. (Pretty low compared to other development software).
The performance of native c++ will be better as Basic4ppc is based on Microsoft .Net CF.
The time it will take you, the developer, to work witk Basic4ppc compared to EVC is much shorter.
