Hi
I have just bought a Axim X51-520 and now need to create a vb.net 2005 application to go on to it. However in Visual Studio I can not see a form factor for any Dells nor in the device emulator manager.

I therefore have a few questions that I would really appreciate somebody answering.

1. Can I download a AXIM plugin for Visual Studio 2005?
2. Can I emulate the AXIM in Visual Studio 2005?
3. When I create my VB.net app do I also need to install the .NET Compact Framework 2.0 Redistributable?
4. Is there a cut down version of the .NET Compact Framework 2.0 Redistributable as it seems rather large at 24Mb
5. I have never developed on a mobile device before, is there any guidelines that I can read? Is there any common mistakes newbies often perform?

I look forward to reading any answers to these questions!
Thanks
Rippo
