Does anyone have any examples/recommendation/best practices with regards to deploying custom applications to smart devices? I've went the SD Card route (for the benefits of data backup when the device goes dead) and it is working fairly well but my customer has encryption set up on their wireless access points. When a unit goes completely dead my application is gone & the encryption key enter under the wireless setup is lost.
Essentially, I'm looking for a way to ensure that upon recharging and powering up the device all of the information is restored & the device functions exactly as it did. I've got it so the application will reinstall but there is seperate setup program which ensures that the only thing the unit can do is run the custom application. It will also install this but does not run it. So once the unit goes dead I have to travel down to the customers and spend a whole 3-5 minutes setting it up.
I'm working with VB in the .NET CF on a Pocket PC '03 OS. The units are the Symbol MC 50.
Thanks!!
