Professional Windows® Embedded CE 6.0

Acknowledgments

Going through the experience of writing a book for the first time has helped me realize the amount of work, effort, and support needed to get a book to print. I could not have done it without the supporting team working behind the scenes to help me.

First, I thank Sondra Webber at Microsoft and Katie Mohr at Wiley for making this book possible. I thank William Bridges at Wiley for reviewing my writing, providing valuable input, and helping correct many of the mistakes I made. I thank Todd Meister and Dan Francis for reviewing the technical contents.

My thanks to Mike Hall, Susan Loh, Gabriel Spil, Travis Hobrla, Riki June, and the Windows Embedded CE development team for posting useful information and answering my questions over the years. I also recognize James Y. Wilson, Avi Kcholi, Steve Maillet, Chris Tacke, Alex Feinman, Maarten Struys, David Heil, Bill Ma, Richard Lee, Paul Yao, Paul Tobey, Douglas Boling, and other Windows Embedded MVPs who contributed their time and knowledge to the news group and posted a large pool of technical resources online to benefit others. The base provided by this group of MVPs helped me gain valuable knowledge and resolved countless problems.

I also thank the following individuals who went out of their way and provided help beyond what was expected:

• Ratheesh Rajan with the Windows Embedded CE BSP team
