The Mobile Minute 16

Arggghh .. five days since the last issue of TMM....work, illness, spousal illness, car illness....pick one of many reasons :-/

• Jon Box notes a great review for his (co-authored with Dan Fox)  .NET CF book.   Ordered mine last week.
• Simon Fell has opened a Pocket SOAP store  Get your swag!
• Monday, December 15 - MSDN Webcast: Smartphone and Pocket PC Programming: Performance and Power Considerations
• Dug up this article on device configuration with .NET CF
• Here, here, and here is info about the upcoming MPx220, the replacement for the MPx200.  Purported features are: Smartphone 2003, camera, Blueooth
• MoDaCo Smartphone Journal - sync your call history into your Outlook Journal (finally, a reason to use that thing)
• Camera wrapper for .NET CF
• Walter Mossberg (WSJ) disses the Smartphone

..and on a non-Mobile front, Steve “Furrygoat” Makofsky notes that Microsoft wants to know if you use the SoapFormatter.

Sometime after this week, I'm going to be moving my blog.  I've been thinking about it a while, and I just feel too constrained to .NET / technical topics here.
