MSDN Webcast: Multi-Device Development Is Here (Level 200)  

Software designers have been urged to break applications into multiple tiers as in three-tier (UI, application logic and data) or n-tier development in order to reduce the coupling between major application sub-systems. Many application designers assume there will always be a single UI tier. Is this an outdated assumption since applications like Microsoft Outlook run on multiple devices such as desktops, Microsoft Windows Mobile-based PocketPCs, SmartPhones and Web browsers? What are the implications for designing multi-device applications? Can code be reused across devices? Martin Schray will share his experiences developing two applications that run on the desktop, PocketPC and SmartPhone using Web services.
