'Windows CE' as a product consists of two main things: Platform Builder and a very large collection of software bits ... it is *not* is a finished OS.

Windows Mobile is a set of pre-selected Windows CE components.

Windows CE as a product has been around for a while (I think the first version was around 1996) but Pocket PC and Windows Mobile platform is much newer. Each version of Pocket PC and Windows Mobile is built from a specific version of the Windows CE product

Visual Studio 2005 include emulator for Pocket PC 2003, Smartphone 2003 and Window CE 5.0. To setup network connection, goto /Tool/Device Emulator Manager, select one emulator, and right click, chosse "connect", this will open the emulator.

Under emulator window, select /File/Configure, under "Network" tab, check "Enable NE2000 PCMCIA Network adapter and Bind to" and click "OK". If not error dialog box pops up, it mean the network connection was already setup. Otherwise, just follow the link to download "Virtual Machine Network Driver for Microsoft Device Emulator", and install the driver.

After this, open emulator window again, goto /Start/Settings/Connections/Network Cards, select a network card, and goto network to select a "internet" or "work".
