There are only 3 weeks left until the Embedded Systems Conference (Silicon Valley), held this year in San Jose from April 14-18th. That means there is still time for you to register to attend!. There are a number of price packages available, depending on which events,sessions, workshops, exhibits etc. you want to attend. You can sign up to attend only one session or the entire 5 days.

There are 2 days of presentation sessions , created and delivered by Embedded Windows product team members and some of our MVPs. It is a great way to meet up with the product team and ask any nagging technical questions you may have. Here is the list of sessions:

• Introduction to Windows XP Embedded
• Creating Custom Components for Windows XP Embedded
• Protect a Windows XP Embedded Image Using Write Filters
• Choose the Right Boot Technology in Windows XP Embedded
• Windows XP Embedded: Remote Debugging and Recovery
• Beyond Windows XP Embedded

There are also 6 Hands-On labs that allow you to work through tasks and exercises at your own pace- a great way to learn about different aspects of the product and dig deeper into some of the concepts. Here is teh list of HOLs:

• Build a Windows XP Embedded Image with a Custom Shell
• End to End Componentization of an Application for Windows XP Embedded
• Experience the Difference in Windows XP Embedded Image Difference Engine
• Locking Down Windows XP Embedded and Windows Embedded Point of Service
• Understand File Based Write Filter in Windows XP Embedded
• Using Windows XP Embedded Command Line Tool to Script and Automate Your Embedded Build Processes

Be sure to also take a look at some of the other Windows Embedded product offerings (such as grabbing a development kit loaded with Windows CE 6.0 R2 and participating in the Build an Embedded System workshop).

Hope to see you there!
