        Microsoft has released an emulator for Windows CE 5.0 that runs CE 5.0 OS images on x86 PCs running Windows XP Pro or 2000 Pro, without requiring the CE Platform Builder development tools to be installed on the system. The "Device Emulator" is available for download from Microsoft's website.

        The emulator enables developers to test Windows CE OS images without having actual target hardware. It also allows them to share OS images with clients who don't have Platform Builder.

        The Device Emulator download comes with a single sample Emulation Project Kit shown in the screen shot above. The 3.6 MB download is available here.
