Emulators are very misleading as the browser rendering engine differs, they are best suited for application testing. Front end should always be checked on a device.
If the site is for Pocket IE, perhaps check it on a browser with JS and CSS support turned off and resize window to 208x320. However the current crop of PDA type devices emerging this year XDA2, TREO, Ericsson P900 now have included support for CSS and some JS. If you wanted a quick check done on a site contact me and I could send on a screenshot. heres some sites I find usefull. http://www.pocketpcmag.com/Mar02/small_web.asp http://www.pocketpcdn.com/sections/pie.html http://www.flashenabled.com/ www.pocketpc.com/ Colm ----- Original Message ----- From: "Miles Tillinger" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Friday, January 09, 2004 10:54 AM Subject: RE: [WSG] PDA Browser Testing There is the MS Pocket PC development kit which includes an emulator, but I'm not sure if that is going to help you. What you need is something that emulates Pocket IE and Palm OS browsers etc. and I've never been able to find one. Maybe you could rent a PDA for a little while? gl.

I'm about to do some testing for a website and curious to see how it looks through a PDA. My major problem is I don't have a PDA to test with.. Do does anyone know if there is a free PDA "emulator" I could use for a Windows PC? Many thanks!
