“Nothing Up My Sleeve — It's All On My Palm!”
This class is geared primarily towards the use of Palm Powered handhelds (Palm, Treo, Handspring, Sony Clie, etc.), and does not cover Pocket PC devices to the same level of detail. Nevertheless, I have attempted to provide some useful Pocket PC information on this page.

Books
Any good bookstore is likely to carry a number of different books covering Pocket PC. Since I am not a Pocket PC user myself, I have not evaluated any of them, but these appear to be the most useful.
