Vista Software's recently released VistaDB 3.0 ushers in the next generation of mobile development by enabling .NET developers to build fully managed and embedded SQL database applications for Windows Mobile 5.0 and Microsoft Compact Framework. The recent success of the Motorola Q Smartphone and the Palm Treo 700w Pocket PC have triggered demand for components and tools, such as VistaDB 3.0, that enable .NET developers to build mobile applications for these devices.
While developers have always been able to build mobile applications that connect to remote database servers, VistaDB 3.0 enables developers to build a new generation of embedded database applications that manage data locally on the mobile device without having to connect to a database server. Key features that the company hopes will help developers adopt VistaDB 3.0 in droves include SQL Server Transact-SQL syntax compatibility, small 600KB embedded footprint, full Unicode support, and royalty-free distribution.
