I've been doing a lot of development for CE recently, and the overall
emphasis on the devices is for media playback. Coming from a
Newton/Palm background, it was very strange to see this as the
primary purpose of the device rather than as the address/datebook
appliance I'm used to.
Funny thing about this--even thought a PocketPC device comes with the
Microsoft Media player for playing MP3s, I have yet to be able to
build a playlist of MP3s stored on an external storage card. Go
figure...
