That was WinCE with its own kernel, not NT. (NT kernel on mobile devices is relatively recent, from Windows Phone 8)

- jplayer01 8y agoHuh, you're right. I must've misremembered, since I was previously aware what a disaster the CE->NT move was on Windows Phone.
- Const-me 8y agoI don't remember any issues. WP7 backward compatibility was very good on WP8, in WP7 they didn't supported any native code, it was all .NET so kernel change didn't matter.
- jplayer01 8y agoOne problem was all the phones that were sunsetted and never got the NT-based version, even though it was promised that many phones would get it. Also, comments by the Windows head and others who say internally it was a nightmare.
