Windows CE, Windows Mobile & Pocket PC

The Grid Mobile software is available for hand held devices running the following Microsoft operating systems:

  • Windows Mobile 2003
  • Windows Mobile 2003 SE
  • Windows Mobile 5.0
  • Windows Mobile 6 Classic or Professional
  • Windows CE 4.20 and above

Notes: 

  • The some features may not be available on all devices, for example not all devices have a serial port for connecting serial switches.   In Windows Mobile 6 the "Windows" and "OK" buttons are restricted in the ways they can be used as scanning controls.
  • SMS messaging can only be used on machines fitted with a phone and running Windows Mobile Phone Edition (in Windows Mobile 6 this is called Professional Edition).
  • If a device has a built-in (or external) qwerty keyboard this can be used instead of onscreen keyboard grids. However text cannot be entered using numeric keypads e.g. using "T9" or "2=abc, 3=def" methods.
  • Grid Mobile cannot be used on Smartphones which do not have a touchscreen (these devices usually have a numeric keypad). Windows Mobile 2003/5 Smartphone edition and Windows Mobile 6 Standard edition are not compatible.
