Why is eVB development no longer supported for Pocket PC 2003?

We will continue to support the eVB run-time in Pocket PC 2003 devices as a RAM installable component, so that older eVB applications will be able to run on the new device, but new eVB development for Pocket PC 2003 devices will not be supported leaving way for more powerful and robust development experiences with Visual Basic® .NET, Visual C#® .NET, and the Microsoft®.NET Compact Framework. Based on customer feedback, the Pocket PC 2003 devices will include the .NET Compact Framework in ROM. The .NET Compact Framework is a subset of the full .NET Framework that is specifically designed for smart devices. It is a far more comprehensive, language neutral application engine than the eVB specific runtime that was provided in the Pocket PC 2000 and Pocket PC 2002 devices.
