Any new development tools?

[HandyMedAdmin]

Ok, so I've looked through the four pages of posts here and not found a current listing of tools. Can folks suggest new tools for coding for devices such as the Verizon/Audiovox xv6700? I found this link on this site ( http://weblogs.asp.net/nleghari/articles/smartphone.aspx ), but it seems to only refer to .NET.

I've got VS 2005 .NET Pro with CF2 already, but I'm curious if there is an easier method. I use NSBasic/CE and NSBasic/Palm, but neither can reach Smartphones. I realize Pendragon Forms will hit the Smartphones, but the app only seems to do forms (duh).

Another to keep an eye on is Pocket Programming Language by ArianeSoft ( http://www.arianesoft.ca/page.php?1 ). They don't have an installer for Smartphones yet, but do outline how you can get your app to a Smartphone ( http://www.arianesoft.ca/page.php?52 ).

Lastly, I'm curious if you're aware of any issues popping up related to WM6 in this same avenue...

Thanks.

I've been developing Pocket PC and now Smartphone applications using embedded Visual C++ 3.0 (with the Smartphone 2002 SDK). My applications will run on the Windows Mobile 5 devices (Pocket PC and Smartphone), so I'm sticking with this environment until I need to access WM5-specific functions (which will require Visual Studio 2005).
