| I want to learn about writing code for mobile (phone) browsers. As I scan
MS’s info, very little seems to mention VS2005, which I have. It appears
that I need to learn about the Mobile Internet Toolkit. However that appears
old.
So I am a bit  and need direction where to start within VS2005 for
working with Mobile device browsers.
Thanks,
Al Smith

you don't need the 'Mobile Internet Toolkit' to get started all you need
is VS2005 standard or better (not express). from there you can create
mobile apps (File->new->project->Visual c#->smart device->device
application)
if you want samples i think you need to download an SDK, eg the Windows
Mobile for PocketPC 2003 SDK (or smartphone) which will install samples into
C:\Program Files\Windows CE Tools\wce420\POCKET PC 2003\Samples
you could also try
