New Emulator Image for 320x240 Smartphone (with Landscape)
Some of you may or may not already know that the upcoming Motorola Q and Samsung i320 Windows Mobile 5.0 Smartphones have a couple of unique properties. First, they provide 320x240 screens. Second, they can function in landscape mode. Both of these capabilities pose new challenges to .NET Compact Framework developers.
Microsoft is now providing a new emulator image for developers. This new download adds a Smartphone emulator with both 320x240 dimensions and landscape support. In order to use this image, you must have Visual Studio 2005 and the Windows Mobile 5.0 SDK for Smartphone already installed. It is recommended that all Smartphone application developers download and install this image in order to test your existing applications.
