All right, Gabe, I'll try again. *Most*, meaning almost all, viruses won't attack a product running Windows CE. While there are viruses that have been developed for Windows CE, it's not the focus of the vast majority of those nasty people out there who spend there time writing viruses. They haven't seemed to figure out, as of yet, that there are vulnerable PDA's on the market, and if they have figured that out, it's not where their efforts appear to be oriented. So, to answer your question, the BrailleNote stands only a tiny chance of becoming infected, especially when compared with a standard PC.
I hope this is what you wanted to know, and if it isn't, that you pursue further answers with an eye toward more cordiality. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Vega, Gabriel Sent: Wednesday, September 14, 2005 3:54 PM To: Braillenote List Subject: RE: [Braillenote] software development kit? No one was asking about standard windows, I was asking about windows ce since the person said the reason why a sdk shouldn't be readily avaible to anyone is cause of viruses to windows, so I asked aren't we running a risk since we run "Windows CE"? the braillenote runs windows ce. I presumed that everyone was on the same page about this.

The BrailleNote family of products is immune to viruses written under standard Windows, since they run Windows CE. As of now, there aren't many viruses out there written for PDA's.

Yeah, But you don't want people who don't know what they're doing to develop programs. That is a draw back. Also, would the virus risk be increased? -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Christopher Emery Sent: Wednesday, September 14, 2005 3:03 PM To: Braillenote List Subject: Re: [Braillenote] software development kit? I for one agree that if there was a SDK then we could build a messenger program that would allow us to communict and have a PDA like others, and also develop altive programs for one the planner so it is more like the Outlook one that is on every other device out there I belive :-) Any how I don't have a device yet but form what I am reading and have read in the manul and played around with on the standard classic VN QT This topic should make for a interesting subject and maybe give insight in to the next KeySoft Thanks Christopher E On 9/14/05, will <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > hi humanware staff especially jonothan, > > Can a software development kit be developed to help expand our braille > notes?
