Portable CE 2.0: Your Pocket PC on a USB Flash Disk
Posted by Darius Wey in "SOFTWARE" @ 09:00 AM
"I have to admit, I was actually a bit surprised at the number of people that were interested in the Portable CE idea that I wrote about back in December. The idea was simple: Using the Windows CE emulator, I could have my entire "internet communications system" on a virtual machine that I carried around with my on my USB keychain. I could essentially plug it into the USB port of any machine running Windows, and bring up the emulator and use Internet Explorer, Messenger, Inbox, etc. I received tons of emails, lots of comments and even a mention in PC Magazine. 9 months later, I present to you a totally new version: Portable CE 2.0."
Portable CE is a compact launcher application designed to run an emulator-based Windows CE image from a USB flash disk. Because v2.0 of Portable CE is based on Microsoft's Device Emulator Community Preview, you'll be able to run both a Pocket PC image and associated applications from Portable CE. All you need to do is setup your USB disk (as outlined on the site) and you're good to go!
