Microsoft Windows CE: decent looking on the outside, but ugly on the inside

Fri, 23 Mar 2001 15:34:31 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author Tibullus - First, let me preface this by saying that I am a wireless developer, who currently develops on the Palm (so I'm a bit biased), and my review will mostly talk about lower level operating systems type stuff rather than your overall look and feel. However,...

Microsoft Windows CE: WinCE - Good but could be Slimmer

Tue, 30 Jan 2001 01:37:20 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author KAR120C - I use the Sharp Tripad daily. It runs on WinCE. I have used this combination for about 2 years now. There have been several "updates" to the OS, but it has changed little since I first began using it.

The Pros: It runs fairly fast. Instant on...

Microsoft Windows CE: Specific review for Newton people

Sat, 18 Nov 2000 20:32:18 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author swreck - I've been (and am) a heavy Newton user: the original Message Pad 100, then

110, 2000, and upgraded 2100. I work in high tech and have taken pretty much every note in every meeting for the last 7+ years in the Newt.

But I'm getting tired...

Microsoft Windows CE: Not all Microsoft Operating Systems are good!

Sun, 1 Oct 2000 15:57:13 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author PKM_Assassin - Microsoft really missed the mark on this one. Although Windows CE has the “Look & Feel” of a Windows 9x system, it is very very limited in functionality; this goes for all versions of CE, including version 1.x and 2.x. It comes with a limited...

Microsoft Windows CE: A dumb idea for any platform...

Tue, 8 Aug 2000 01:42:58 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author kfj001 - This review focus's on WindowsCE 2.0

WindowsCE, it's Windows, and it's not for PC's anymore...

WindowsCE is Microsoft's entry, to a uniform OS for mobile computing devices, like Palm-top's, PDA's (and the newly defined, "Pocket...

Microsoft Windows CE: Its just the PC counter part

Mon, 26 Jun 2000 16:20:29 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author MDragon53 - Windows CE started off fairly unstable, with few features. My earliest experience was with CE 2.0. It was build for the black and white hand held devices. 2.0 serves its purpose, but runs slowly, and proved me wrong when I told friends that hand held...

Microsoft Windows CE: Vivat Windows CE!..

Sun, 2 Jan 2000 05:04:03 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author O3M - Those of you who have read my articles in numerous publications know that I am not a Windows guy. I do have a lot of respect for Microsoft and use their products about 50% of the time, purely for desktop related stuff. Being the guy who likes to dig deep...

Microsoft Windows CE: bleh!

Thu, 2 Dec 1999 00:38:38 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author phatbhuda - After using Newton OS and Palm OS, I was waiting to be impressed by Windows CE. The previous two were designed from the ground up to be pen oriented. Windows CE's main problem is that it takes a mouse driven operating system and adapts it for pen...

Microsoft Windows CE: An OS with the MS name but quick!

Wed, 1 Dec 1999 07:33:08 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Aaron_Abq - Yes, I know with a title like that you're already thinking "great another Linux geek" and well, you'd be right. I use MS OS's too but for power on the desktop I use Linux. So when I was given a handheld PC running Windows CE I thought...

Microsoft Windows CE: A Writer's Dream! - Non Humor

Tue, 9 Nov 1999 20:01:33 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author aaronreview - Have you sat in the back of a smoke filled cafe with a menthol cigarette in one hand and a double expresso in the other, thinking to yourself in a phony French accent Now, when I am most bitter, would be a good time to write poetry? With Windows CE it...
