For developers: Microsoft releases and pulls back Windows Mobile 6 SDK download
February 24, 2007 [General] | By Edward J. R.

One glitch here, another glitch there but generally nobody at Microsoft is embarassed. Obviously the earlier SDK is available the better for developers, but it is not like Microsoft cares...

Somebody at Microsoft has published Windows Mobile 6 SDKs too early and we were reporting about it already but now developers can't find them! So if you haven't downloaded them right away (like we did; including libraries and emulator):



... you are being forced by Microsoft to wait:

Since we announced Windows Mobile 6 at 3GSM last Monday, a couple of people have asked me "where are the Windows Mobile 6 SDKs?". The good news is that for most developers, their existing Windows Mobile 5.0 application will just work on Windows Mobile 6* and you can use the Windows Mobile 5.0 SDK to build your Windows Mobile 6 applications. Of course, smart developers will want to test their applications on Windows Mobile 6 before they say they support Windows Mobile 6 and the easiest way to do that is using a Windows Mobile 6 emulator image! Where are the emulator images? In the Windows Mobile 6 SDK of course! So that brings us back to the original question, when can you get hold of the Windows Mobile 6 SDKs?

The answer : March 1st

Conclusion: this debacle is rather smaller one and the delay is only 2 weeks so not such a big problem after all.
