Advanced Installer's Windows Mobile CAB Projects allow you to create CABinet packages that can be used to install applications on Windows Mobile/CE platforms. Advanced Installer creates the CAB from scratch without any other tool being involved in creating packages for these platforms.

There are several delivery options for deploying the CAB packages obtained by building this project type onto Smart Devices:

• Desktop ActiveSync Installation or registering the application with the "Windows CE Application Manager" (a component of the Microsoft ActiveSync services). This is the most common delivery mechanism.
• The user downloads the CAB package from a website using a browser such as Internet Explorer Mobile - the CAB file is automatically launched after the download completes.
• The CAB file is copied onto a storage card (MMC, SD, CompactFlash etc) and launched from there.
