Do you write applications for the PocketPC?  Don't miss this Addison-Wesley title from Steve MakofskyPocketPC Network Programming

Here's what I wrote about it on Amazon.com:

If you're crazy about writing useful apps for sexy little devices like the PocketPC Phone Edition and need a good networking reference, wired or wireless, you must buy this book. It is anchored by a strong index and a sensible and logical chapter structure. My favorite feature is the just-inside-the-cover FAQ (front and back) with page numbers where the question is answered. 

Unlike many technical books, PocketPC Network Programming will neither insult your intelligence nor assume that you know everything.  Basic concepts (like cookies, headers, SMS, etc) are briefly, thoroughly, and elegantly described.

Most importantly, Steve Makofsky's code samples are crisp, well-documented, and his explanations are easy to follow--even for a confirmed eVB/eC# junkie like me. In particular, there's an excellent chapter on the Pocket Outlook Object Model and MAPI that explains how to create Pocket Outlook plugins and more.

I recommend this book without reservations and would rank it up there with books from the likes of Stephen Walther, Charles Petzold, and Don Box.
