5 out of 5 stars A gem for the Windows Mobile developer   August 18, 2008
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

One of the few WM development books, and certainly the only one that merits five stars. This book is thorough, timely, and informative about the technologies relevant to making great WM apps in native and managed code.


5 out of 5 stars Excellent Reference   July 17, 2008
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

I purchased this book, among others, to learn more about the compact framework. This has ended up being the one that is always on my desk and constantly referred to. There is information in here that is not on any google search, and the code used by the author to demonstrate complicated operations (such as creating opacity in CF forms), is easier and clearer than I have seen anywhere else. A very good book, and well worth purchasing.


4 out of 5 stars Very complete   March 31, 2008

Definitely a good book: I found it very complete and easy to read. Useful and interesting, straightaway.


5 out of 5 stars The best book from the best in the business   March 1, 2008
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

Got 2 copies for my moble development team. The book is simply invaluable. Either you read cover to cover, or select any chapter of special interest the result is in depth information and guidance. Very often our two copies are not enough for everyone in the team.


5 out of 5 stars Great book   February 17, 2008

It is like my bitacora or bible when i am offline. I guess it has a little of everything you need to know in very compact book (i thought a 600 book will be wider but the size is great)
