was sktools ever compatible with Axim x5 Windows CE?
I would love to get a copy if it was.
Most of the sktools are written against windows CE target and will run on PocketPC, Windows Mobile and Windows CE devices. The minor OS base should be Windows CE .Net 4.x, I assume. But for clarity please ask at sktools website.
There is always an alternative
