OmniGo SDK versus 2.0 SDK



Q:
What is the difference between the OmniGo SDK and the
GEOS 2.0 SDK?

A:
In a nutshell, the OmniGo SDK is targeted towards
application development for the HP OmniGo 100 device; the
Geos 2.0 SDK provides an environment for developing
applications for Geos 2.0 based devices or software (such as
Casio Z-7000, IBM SchoolView, and Geoworks Ensemble).

The main differences are that the OmniGo SDK provides:
 - a development environment for writing applications for Geos 2.1
 - libraries and documentation specific to the OmniGo 100
 - an OmniGo 100 emulation for debugging purposes

The Geos 2.0 SDK provides:
 - a development environment for writing applications for Geos 2.0
 - debugging emulators for Casio Z-7000, Sharp PT-9000,
Geoworks Ensemble


Q:
Can I use the Geos 2.0 SDK to write applications for the OmniGo 100?

A:
Yes. The Geos 2.0 SDK may be used to write applications
for the OmniGo 100.  Likewise, the OmniGo SDK may be used to
write applications for Geos 2.0 based products.

Developers using the 2.0 SDK may have some difficulty fully
testing their applications for the OmniGo since the 2.0 SDK
does not contain an OmniGo 100 emulator.
