With SideShow for Windows Embedded CE, developers can display gadgets from a Windows Vista computer on a Windows Embedded CE powered device connected to that computer.
The SideShow service on Windows Embedded CE initiates a connection with a Windows Vista powered computer via IP, USB, or Bluetooth. When the connection succeeds, the cache on the device is populated with SideShow gadget data. This is only performed for the gadgets that the Windows Vista user has turned on in the SideShow control panel.
Note
Windows SideShow for Windows CE 5.0 is a separate installed product. It must be downloaded and installed in order to be added to an existing installation of Windows CE 5.0.
