Emulator for Ultra Mobile PC

This is exactly what I was waiting to see the real "jump" of the Ultra Mobile PC technology: Microsoft has released a software emulator for UMPC that permits you to test your application's layout and screen behavior as it appears on an UMPC.

Essentially, the tool shows how your program, which is designed for a standard graphic user interface (GUI), appears in the typical resolution of a UMPC. The UMPC Display Emulator simply intercepts all of the Win 32 functions that include display, positioning, and resolution information and then returns the UMPC resolution.

Now the next steps we're waiting is an integration with the Visual Studio environment.
