Has anyone here used this at all? I'm in the process of downloading it to see if I can create a few little apps and games for my new Ipaq. Should also give me the opportunity to reaquaint myself with a little thing called programming, not done any for a bit.

Spooky! 
Are you a "Byte" subscriber too? I spotted that earlier today on a MS download page linked from a Jerry Pournelle article. Didn't download it, though. I *did* order an "evaluation set" of Windows Server 2003, though; $11.50 on CD (£7.60ish) including shipping to the UK, free including shipping in the US. 
It comes with an activation key that gives you a six month licence, which should be enough time for me to learn how it works...

Think it's just a coincidink Peet, I got myself an Ipaq h5450 last week and was thinking of writing a few simple programs and maybe the odd game.
The hospital school has also been asked to trial some Ipaq h3570s using them as a wi-fi registration system for use on the wards, but as I've been unable to find any such software available I guess it's up to muggins to write something that might serve the purpose. However, it means having to remember how to program to a sensible extent again 
Well from first glances the embedded VB and C++ don't look much different from those I used briefly with Visual Studio 6, so that's a good start.
