RedFiveLabs have finally launched to the market Net60. What is Net60? In short, it’s a Symbian S60 port of Microsoft’s .Net Compact Framework 1.0.
Every people involved in Symbian based development during his career will probably agree that this is the toughest mobile development environments. The tool chain utilities have improved during the years, but it is still far away from other environments such as Windows Mobile or JME.
That’s why Net60 is specially interesting. Developers will be able to write and test C# code in Microsoft’s Visual Studio, eventually deploying the resulting application in Symbian based mobile phones.
Anyway, Net60 is only .Net Compact Framework 1.0 complaint. Current standard is 2.0 version, which is less error-prone and have important improvements to the 1.0 release. This is the main drawback of this software.
