It's fairly different in a couple areas:

*  The installer needs to be marked in some way as supporting smartphone.
This is the problem you are having now.
*  Smartphone devices don't have all the runtime functionality the
PocketPC devices do.  Even if you manually installed it you would still
have missing dependencies.
*  Smartphone GUI is a little different that PocketPC in that it does not
use touchscreen, etc.  The GUI will need to be reworked a little to make
is useable in the Smartphone context.
*  Smartphone devices occaisionally require execution privileges that will
preclude running software not signed by a special 'privileged' code
signing key from the Mobile Operator.  Enforcing this is at the operator's
descretion, so it depends on who you have.

Several folks have asked about Smartphone as of late, and there is some
exploratory work going on.  The first items listed above are doable.  The
last one is more questionable.  There is also the possibility that you can
unlock your device even if it is locked down if you find yourself in that
situation.

So, short story is there is not Smartphone support, but you may wish to
check back in about a month or so.

Hi,
   I bought this phone http://www.imate.com/t-DETAILS_SP5.aspx after
checking your site to make sure it is supported. Unfortunately, when I
attempted to install the client I got the error message of something like
'unsuccessfull installation ....unsupported device'.

I checked the forum to see if there are any workarounds but no avail. Is
the Windows Mobile 5.0 Smart Phone Edition different from the Windows
Mobile 5.0?
Please help.
Regards
