terminal provided that the following parameters are met:
• the software program was created for a Windows CE device.
• The terminal has enough memory to store and run the program.

When selecting programs, verify that the program and version of the program are designed for the Windows CE 5.0 and the
terminal's processor. You can verify your processor by tapping Start > Settings > Control Panel > System > General tab. Make a
note of the information in the Processor field.
