Microsoft Previews Windows CE 6 Operating System
"In a packed hall of developers and industry partners at Microsoft Corp.�s annual Mobile & Embedded DevCon, the company announced the availability of a beta release of Windows� CE 6, the next generation of its industry-leading, real-time software used to build customized operating systems for devices such as Internet Protocol (IP) set-top-boxes, Global Positioning System (GPS)-based devices, and industrial automation and medical devices. With the redesigned operating system (OS) kernel architecture, expanded capacity for simultaneous processes and a newly integrated tool set, Windows CE 6 will help device makers more quickly create devices that support a range of applications for high-demand categories."
Windows CE, the foundation for the Windows Mobile platform, is now ten years old. At the MEDC 2006 Microsoft has released the preview of Windows CE 6, which will enable the next generation of Windows Mobile operating system and embedded devices. At this time not much is known about this release, other than the fact that it enables better Visual Studio integration and that the redesigned operating system enables more complex and powerful applications.
