The next update to Microsoft's Windows CE .Net OS, which has been given the code name McKendric, will ship before the middle of 2003 and include several new features, a company executive said at the Microsoft Embedded DevCon 2003 conference being held here.
Expected to be called Windows CE .Net Version 4.2 when it hits the market later this year, McKendric offers several improvements over the current version of the OS, Windows CE .Net 4.1. It will incorporate new features, such as support for VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol), a firewall, and wireless networking support for residential gateways, said Chip Schnarel, group program manager for Windows CE OS development at Microsoft.
