Is it possible to apply DRM forward lock to windows mobile applications?

+1  A: 

Yes it does.

You need to use the Windows Mobile File-Based Digital Rights Management API. This is a WM5 API, so it's not supported under WM 2003.

Your device needs to have a FDRM provider installed. I beleave most WM5/6 devices should have some sort of provider installed by default in the ROM.

Shane, does this include .dm wrapped files?
David
I'm not sure I can answer that question since I don't know what ".dm wrapped files" means. The API is just a wrapper API around FDRM Providers. The provider controls what drm "formats" it supports (e.g. OMA DRM V1.0 or OMA DRM v2.0). I haven't used it enough to know what common providers use.
