HPC WinCE Archives



Win CE Logo2

Here are some of my HPC Windows CE softwares, which I've collected over the years. Some will work on both the CE1.0 & 2.0 devices. Some are only for that particular platform. Its been awhile since I had them. So I'm not sure some are for which platform. You have to try it for yourselves. Some are very useful and I still make use of them on the HPC, while the poorer ones I have removed from my HPC. You will have try them out to see which ones are useful to you. If you still owned a functional HPC device, kudos to you for keeping it in working order for so long!
