Leverage Your Development Skills, Go Embedded!

Embedded systems are rocketing; each of us is transporting, using and depending on a variety of these devices - PDAs, smartphones, personal navigation devices, mobile Internet devices, gamepads etc. The Windows Embedded platforms cover a very large scope of technologies with strange but impressive names, like "CE kernel", "WEPOS" and "NavReady". This session is targeted at non-embedded developers with experience in more traditional Windows technologies like Win32, COM or .NET. We will walk the bridge between these worlds, observing commonalities and differences through real-world case studies and technical dive-ins. Come and learn how your existing skills may already be very close to what is required for embedded development and what you can gain from future work in embedded projects.
