Adapt your App

One of the nice things about writing software for Pocket PCs was that Microsoft dictated to the hardware vendors certain things like screen size, resolution, orientation, the number of buttons, sound recorder, etc. So you could write your app towards the generic device and it would work on all Pocket PCs. Now there are so many different types of devices for both Pocket PC and Smartphone it makes me feel like I'm writing for Java (write once, test everywhere). Here's a site with resources of the different types of devices currently supported.
