Microsoft Windows CE 3.0 is an Operating System (OS) designed for Embedded System s. It can run on several different types of Processor and has some support for Real Time programming.

It was designed for embedded use in devices including PDAs and Mobile Phone s, working within the constraints of the slow processors and reduced amount of memory available on these devices.

A distintive feature of Windows CE compared to other Microsoft software is that parts of it are offered in source code form. In 3.0, the source for several device drivers is available, including those for USB, the display and PCMCIA. They are offered mainly through the Platform Builder OS image integrator, but also through other initiatives.

Windows CE 3.0 has several variations for different devices, including Pocket PC , designed for handheld PDAs without keyboards.

This version has since been superceded by Windows CE 4.0 and Windows CE 5.0 .
