5.0 out of 5 stars
Good book, but not for beginners
Got this book on it's 2nd Day of publication at the Windows CE Deveopers Conference. It is a very good reference on CE 2.0 and 2.1 development. This book is for people who know MFC and the Win32 API well. It's not a beginners guide, but it does a great job covering all the technical aspects of CE development from coding, to registry, to database, to object store,...

Worthless! It's only a printout of the online docs!
This book is useless for anything other than a hardcopy printout of EXACTLY what you already have online. If you own any of the development kits for Windows CE, then you already have this book. Don't waste your money...it's an exact bit for bit printout with nothing else added.

Thick book with No Details,

If you intend on Programming in VC++ for CE, don't bother getting this one. Every time I referenced this book, the information presented wasn't worth looking it up. Burdick's is a better choice.

This book covers a lot of what I needed. I've been programming CE for about a year and the CE doc's from Microsoft are "lacking". Highly recommend it for database access, creating shortcuts, and other general info. Well written. Great first book for the beginning CE developer with lots of useful stuff for the more advanced.
