the SDK is what provides the compiler and linker, as well as debugging tools. you can get the 2003 sdk, which supports 2002 and 2003, and if you want to build WM5 apps, download the wm5 sdk. although i've found writing in .net works on pretty much every platform.

that's a simple one. the emulator in the 2002 sdk is buggy. the one in the 2003 sdk is better, but still has weird issues. i always test everything i write on my handheld.

you've already got answers (mostly) on the last 3, so i won't answer them. and if you're looking for a "more active" development forum, i'd recommend the forums at devbuzz.com
