The Entire State and Notifications Broker 3-Part Series is Complete

As many of you know, I'm a strong believer in the Windows Mobile State and Notifications Broker. It is one of those features that changes the entire landscape and creates great new opportunities for developers to integrate their applications more closely with the Windows Mobile platform.

One of the things I find kind of funny is that the basic features of the State and Notifications Broker are so easy to use that many people never take advantage of some of the more sophisticated features like conditional notifications, batch notifications, persistent notifications, custom notifications, etc. In the hope of making these features more accessible, I wrote this 3-part series as part of my You Can Take It With You column on MSDN.

Whether you're new to the State and Notifications Broker or you use it regularly, I think you'll find some useful information.

• State and Notifications Broker Part I (the basics)
• State and Notifications Broker Part II (conditional, batch, persistent notifications & creating persistent notifications from a CAB file)
• State and Notifications Broker Part III (Windows Mobile 6 new state values, custom notifications, threading issues, persistent notifications across native & managed apps & some gotchas)

All of the articles in the series cover both native and managed equally. I really enjoyed researching and writing the series; I hope you enjoy reading it.
