Hi All,

How can you emulate a GPS enabled PocketPC Device?
I have VS2005 with the Windows Mobile 5.0 PocketPC SDK installed. The SDK
contains a sample project for showing GPS coordinates, however, the emulator
device doesn't simulate any GPS data.

I'm new to the Mobile game, so be gentle.

Thanks,
Grant.

You can force the GPS intermediate driver to read stored NMEA from a text
file. See here on Barry Bond's blog (apologies for tongue twister)

Excellent - thanks Peter.

Got a little simulation all up and away now.
