Folks, after almost 12 months of development, I'm proud to admit we managed
to get XPe working to our requirements.

It was a long hard battle, especially with getting CF going, but it's
wonderful in action.

Congrats! If you feel so inclined, it would be interesting to see a
narative from you about your 12 month journey wrt. XP Embedded. What
challenges did you face? What approaches did you use when building your
image? What resources (newsgroups, consultants, etc.) did you utilize?
etc.
 
Hi Gordon

About three months ago I sent a precis of the project 'as it was' to MS and
the interest from MS deafened me :-)

I offered MS a paper on our experience with XPe (at that time I was quite
critical of CF and XPe), and I heard nothing.

Like many others, I assumed MS did not care.

No Probs, it's an easy article.

That's odd, the XPe team eats that stuff up, as evidenced by my multiple
requests for constructive feedback in the newsgroup this year. Feel free to
contact me offline with any papers and I can forward them to Dev, PM and
Test.

In fact, your NG post about your company's device was forwarded around the
XPe team within 90 minutes of your post because we love seeing our stuff
being deployed in the real world!

I would, but email to you bounces.

The product we've developed is exactly the sort of application that XPe is
designed for.
If you have any XPe specialists located in Sydney (Australia), I'd be happy
to give them a tour of the facility.

Contact me by email.

Regards
Graham.
 
I'm sorry Graham, I should have mentioned you'll need to remove "online"
from the mail address.

Please feel free to forward any constructive criticism of the product. Also,
if you're interested at all in helping out the community by feeding back any
of the tips and tricks you've learned over the last 12 months, I'd be happy
to get your name in lights by getting your tips published here:
http://www.microsoft.com/windows/embedded/community/tips/xp/default.asp

Thanks again Graham.

Hiya Andy,

Sorry for the delayed reply. We got into an upgrade of the development
system, and then I went on
vacation :-)

Okies, thanks. I'll send some detailed product info to you. FYI, each of
these systems requires
10 x XP embedded licenses + 1 x XP Pro OEM license for the engineering
management station.

The company website (http://www.evolution.com.au) has been updated with a
quicktime movie showing the product in action.

Thanks for the reply, and again apologies for the delayed response.

Graham.
