With the latest V1.1 release of the Windows CE 6.0R3 BSP for the Beagleboard, MPC Data includes additional tools, documentation and configurable support for both 128MB and 256MB hardware revisions. MPC Data have also announced roadmap support for Windows Embedded Compact 7 on the same platform with the offer of a free upgrade to the Compact 7 BSP for existing customers when released.
More details of the Windows CE6.0R3 BSP for the Beagleboard can be found on our Beagleboard BSP page.
The processing power offered by the OMAP3 processor on the Beagleboard, with its 600/720MHz ARM Cortex A8 core and on-chip PowerVR 2D graphics accelerator, coupled with the new Compact 7 BSP ensures that graphics-intensive Silverlight 3.0 applications run efficiently and with minimal impact on CPU utilisation.
The current BSP development is based on Windows Embedded Compact 7 CTP as part of our participation, as leading Microsoft Gold Level partners, in the early adopter program for Windows Embedded technologies.
MPC Data are timing the production release of this BSP to coincide with the official release of Compact 7 by Microsoft.
Contact us at windows@mpcdata.com for more details of our roadmap.
