Okay, I may have gotten in over my head here... I bought a
http://www.miogps.com/US/products_p550_features.htm#1

Now I need to identify WHERE and what software *I* can run on this
device... everything I seem to search for points towards PocketPC stuff, but
then mentions MIPS, and ARM and For use with Windows CE. Is Windows Mobile
5.0 just another version of Windows CE?

Thanks in Advance.

Windows Mobile is a subset of Windows CE, but for any software that you wish
to install on your device you should use the ARM version not the Windows CE
version.
