eVB programs work on Windows Mobile 6 !

Today, I was really surprised to find out that I could run eVB programs on the Windows Mobile 6 HTC Tytn II. Basically, you will have to download the eVB runtime from Microsoft, intended for Pocket PC 2003/2003SE. This is a really good news for people who want to run old programs written in eVB on your latest Windows Mobile 6.0.

I did not originally discover this, but I found it through a post in PocketPCMag.com
