I have a Palm OS app that I would like to make available to those who use Pocket PC. I could use some some pointers and ideas.

It is written using the gcc toolset (prc-tools), written in C. I have another version in java that runs as a java applet on a web browser. The application is an aid for physicians treating patients with heart failure. The current executable is a single file, about 40K on the Palm.

I have tried to understand what I have to do, but I am confused, and thought that others on this list must have experience and knowledge about this issue.

First, I am confused about the differences between the available platforms. Windows CE, Pocket PC, Win32, ARM, etc. Any guidance gratefully accepted.

Second, what development environment would be good to use? I should mention that this is NOT a commercial development, and the budget is limited. So far, the expenditure is about $00.00, and ideally, I would like to keep it that way. I have downloaded eMbedded Visual Studio 4.0, but it appears to be set up to compile for a device with a larger screen. I have previously written programs in waba, but found the execution speed quite slow.

Finally, where can I find documentation and tutorials like the excellent ones for the Palm?

Thanks in advance for any pointers or links!
