All Pocket PCs contain the Microsoft OS and applications built in and they also share similar designs. With software and technology innovations, newer Pocket PCs are now equipped with Bluetooth and Wi-Fi features. With the release of Windows Mobile 2003 OS, Pocket PCs now have integrated support for digital cameras. Microsoft has continuously developed software and improves its Mobile OS to support faster CPUs using the ARM architecture.
Microsoft is contemplating on adding more functionality to the Pocket PC OS so they are advising software developers to prepare for larger displays and rotating screens in their applications.

A clamshell Pocket PC or one with pullout QWERTY keyboard is also on the horizon and something software developers need to prepare for.

Sounds like science fiction? The idea is closer to reality than you think. Accenture Technology Labs has developed a prototype Mobile Personal Services Platform (MPSP), which makes it possible to develop applications that can transform a mobile phone into a customized personal coach.
