Softeq has administered Hewlett-Packard's iPAQ Developer Program for five straight years. As a result of that long association, Softeq has developed several mobile SDKs (Software Development Kits) for HP's line of iPAQ Pocket PCs and Smartphones.

The iPAQ Developer Program is now a part of HP's Developer & Solution Provider Program (DSPP). To learn more about the DSPP, go to www.hp.com/dspp.

The Softeq iPAQ Utility SDK provides a .NET class library and a C++ class library to built-in features on HP iPAQ handhelds (e.g., backlight, WLAN power, asset info, etc.). C#, VB.NET, and eVC++ are supported.

The Softeq iPAQ Camera SDK provides programmatic access to built-in cameras on HP iPAQ handhelds from .NETCF and C/C++ programs. It supports built-in cameras on HP iPAQ series rx3700, h6300, hw6500, and hw6900.

The Softeq iPAQ Biometric SDK provides a .NET class library to access the biometric features on select HP iPAQ handhelds. Both C# and VB.NET are supported.
