Greetings! Anyway, My question, If you want to experiment developing for a Windows Mobile device, how would you go about testing your applications? I know there is a emulator but is not really ideal. Is there anyway, without paying a stupid astronomical cost, to get a development phone? Akin to what Google did with the android and I ...
I work in a .net body shop, but we have recently taken on some in-house development for a client. As we do most of our work outside the office, the current pcs are underpowered (Pentium D, 2GB RAM, 7200RPM HDD, 17inch monitor). I am pushing to get us new hardware, but the owner wants to hard facts on why/how it will help. Does anyone h...
I'm a .NET C# developer looking to do some hardware interfacing/programming. I just want something super simple to mess around with. I have done one of those basic stamp projects, but I want something with less electrical work. A self-contained piece of hardware would be fine. I'm not really looking to do embedded programming... but...

Hi there, I have a fundamental question. I produced some FPGA image for some media application and now I would like to compare my results to the ones of ASIC implementation of the same algorithm in terms of performance & area. I have heard such a comparasion does not make sense since it is somewhat comparing apples and oranges. But I h...
Hi: Is there a good way to benchmark a Visual Studio developer PC, instead of looking at the technical specs? Objective is to set a level and see every developer passes, if not upgrade them to new PC. Any thoughts and suggestions? ...
I need to control 128 different serial lines via .NET (simply because I know it). I hear there are various Basic Stamps available, and then some XP, CE, Micro, and Embedded options available to me. /update: My plan is to have a MUX of some type break down my serial line into a specific address. I'm not planning on having 128 individu...
Hello Team, Our client requirement is to develop a WCF which can withstand with 1-2k concurrent website users and response should be around 25 milliseconds. This service reads couple of columns from database and will be consumed by different vendors. Can you suggest any architecture or any extra efforts that I need to take while devel...
Dear Community For board bringup, me and my team is in search for a memory testing algorithm that will help us verify the design and test during production (bad soldering, cross-connected address/data lines, mismatched impedances, mirroring etc.). I've read that e.g. March C or similar is the answer to our prayers, but I haven't yet f...
Hi all, i want to stream jpeg images to a preferably minimal sized and easy to handle device which will output the video stream via VGA or DVI. Perfect would be a board/system that - should be pico-itx sized ( maximum mini-itx ) - should be gcc programmable ( no fpga .. too complex ) - must have a 100MB / 1GB Ethernet controller on boa...
