I got the PocketC trial but have not had enough time to play with it so far. Some of the included sample programs would run on my Axim and some wouldn't.

With the M$ tools there is a steep learning curve, not so much for the language as for just getting the whole setup installed, configured, and running. I dread trying to install their embedded tools on my desktop computer. PocketC just installs and goes with no muss or fuss.

I guess it depends on the size of programs that you want. I forgo some niceties for my own programs since I am more interested in getting a result than creating a pretty application. I thought PocketC would do that for me.

OTOH, M$ has the momentum and the power, so in the long haul their products will beat out the competition.
