Thanks for the correction. My opinion is probably outdated, and prejudiced by 
the fact that I used to be a Microsoft Gold Certified Partner. But when I tried 
StyleTap, it did not support conduits, or SD cards. My IR printing routine 
crashed, which I admit that was an extreme test. But my biggest reservation 
would be over performance. My app can handle databases with over 30,000 
records, quite comfortably. I would be gobsmacked if it could do that under 
StyleTap.

Joyeux Noel, BTW.

What is that based on? I don't use a WM device myself, but I tested
my app under StyleTap and it works just fine. And when I noticed a
problem with beaming (with IR library detection), StyleTap promptly
fixed it and documented the change in the next release.

Unless you want to port your code yourself, StyleTap sounds like
the way to go. Not just for WM PDAs, but a few others. If Apple didn't keep 
such a tight control over what apps can run on their
devices, my app would even run on an iPhone and perhaps iPod Touch!
(StyleTap has a version for the iPhone.)
