Poker Planning for Windows Mobile

I got annoyed this week.  We were doing our planning poker (with the cards) when one of my coworkers broke out his IPhone instead.  He had a planning poker app on his freaking IPhone.  I whipped out my Windows Mobile phone and ? did nothing.  I grabbed a deck of card and moved on.

Afterwards though, I did a couple of quick searches and found nothing.  Near as I can tell there is no Planning Poker app for Windows Mobile.  So I made one.

The app should run on Windows Mobile 5, 6, and 6.5.  It required .Net 2.0 Compact Framework to run as well.  If someone really wants, I can compile it down to pre-Window Mobile 5.  Also, I wrote it with touch screens in mind.  It might work on a non-touch screen device, but I really don?t know.

The part that made be blog about this though was the amount of time it took to make this.  About an hour.  Start, finish, and install.  So it is possible to make an app quickly in Windows Mobile if you want to.  — OK, reality check, we are not talking about a complicated app here.  The point is, the application did not take any longer than a normal WinForms app would take to code.

The entire project is up on CodePlex, code and all.  MS-PL license, so go nuts if you want to.
