To develop for Windows Mobile 6.x in Visual Studio 2008, you must install WM6 SDKs
VS 2008 Professional and higher only comes with Windows Mobile 2003 and 5.0 SDKs preinstalled. Download the Windows Mobile 6 SDKS at: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=06111A3A-A651-4745-88EF-3D48091A390B&displaylang=en
