With the explosive proliferation of mobile computers, an education in modern computer programming languages and techniques should include exposure to application development for them. This paper's authors chose to do an independent study on eMbedded Visual Basic, a programming language being used with the WinCE operating system. One element of the study was participation in a Pocket PC programming contest sponsored by Microsoft, which concluded April 8, 2001. This paper discusses our experiences researching mobile computing platforms, learning eMbedded Visual Basic, and developing and submitting an application for the contest.

Keywords: eMbedded Visual Basic, Pocket PC, Windows CE, programming contests
