You can configure Windows CE to meet the user input requirements of different platforms. Currently, the keyboard, input panel, voice, mouse, and stylus are the supported input methods (IMs) on Windows CE–based devices.
Keyboard features in Windows CE–based devices are similar to Windows-based desktop platforms. Like those platforms, Windows CE supports hot keys. A hot key is a keystroke or combination of keystrokes that shifts the user to a different application. Hot keys give the user high-priority system access for a specific purpose, such as canceling a time-consuming file transfer operation.
