When debugging, you can save yourself some time by entering data into your text boxes using the Watch window, instead of the SIP keyboard. Using Visual Studio, this is very easy."</i><br /><br />David Kline shares a developer trick to make life easier when debugging .NET Compact Framework applications, saving you the hassle of data entry on the device itself.

It kind fits into that category of "things you didn't know you could do with Visual Studio".

Personally, it I find it better to use PocketController or the remote control power toy as the comment in the article said.

remote control power toy is a very handy tool but someone has to solve the speed issue! the utility is very slow thus making the program away from usefull
