Create your own Windows CE Mobile Channel (continued)

The body of the hardware page
The remainder of the page is the part I change when authoring new content. The copyright message remains at the bottom of the page. As you can see HTML commands like as bold and list work just fine in Mobile Channels.

Now it's back to the use of tables again for the text to keep it nicely aligned on the screen:

Lots of the Palm-sized PC Vendors have started showing details of their color palm-sized PCs in public now, HP has started shipping and Compaq devices are due out any time now.</p>

<p>Casio has announced 2 new machines one monochrome and one color, The color E100 color palm-sized PC is going to be the machine to have this year, it looks great and it is loaded with multimedia features and it's really quick.</p>



<p>Compaq machine looks good but with Everex and Philips due to get their devices to the shops soon it's going to be an interesting summer. I hope to have all the specifications of these new machines on my site soon </p>

Beyond Mobile Channels
Up until very recently Mobile Channels were the only source of accessing HTML content on your Windows CE Palm-sized PC. Now that's all started to change. A company called Conduits has just released a Web browser, shown in Figure D for Palm-sized PCs that's an both an online and offline browser.

AvantGo is making available versions of their popular applications for Windows CE devices as well. Jason Perlow's written a detailed article on AvantGo elsewhere in this issue. Corporate customers who already have the infrastructure in place will soon be able to have the benefit of offering their users access to AvantGo channels on Windows CE devices.

There's also a benefit to Web developers who use AvantGo. AvantGo is supported for both Palm Computing Platform devices as well as Windows CE devices. As a result, Web sites designed to be AvantGo compatible can be mobile on both platforms.
