Can you please try it out with the current Technology Preview of 
Qt/WinCE available here:

and see if the same issues still exists?

No :) I need either screenshots or the code. If you simply mean that the 
different widgets look a little bit different when it comes to color, 
that is most likely because we have a different look-and-feel for 
Windows CE and Windows Mobile. Try setting the style explicitly in your 
example, something like:

qApp->setStyle(new QWindowsMobileStyle);

before you show it. Then I guess the "large differences in the graphic 
elements" should go away.

We have created our own "Standard SDK" for Windows CE 6.0 using Platform 
Builder that we test against.

It is already supported, if not please tell us any issues you find.


I hope this helps to answer your questions. Feel free to ask more.
