I have a mobile device project I need to design a front end fora wireless scanner/PDA.As I usually design my front ends in access it looks Like I need to learn a new development tool.I have 2 choices for the O.S. Windows CE.NET Or Mobile 2003.What would be my best bet for a front end using one or the other of these O.S.I do have a terminal server on this net maybe it would be better to try and publish an access application on the terminal server. ( Never tried anything like that)Maybe citrix ? All viewpoints would be appreciated.  JimUsers <> Logic |

| Unit will have realtime WI-FI net access.As for the location of the app. that would depend on the design of the app. If I was to run a Access front end it would have to reside on the Server and use a thin client. (not sure of the dependibility of this)JimUsers <> Logic |

| With realtime WI-FI you could develop a browser based scanning app. WI-FI really opens up your options. |
