One of the most requested features in Embedded systems is to avoid, in some way, that the user is "prompted" by the operating system or by an application not designed for the Embedded, to interact with keyboard, mouse or touch.

On Friday September 28th, inside the MIC (Microsoft Innovation Center) Labs, Microsoft will host a DEV CAMP, an event for developers like the ones organized in Milan and Rome.

All these events are free, realized by local community developer support! They are a great opportunity to be in direct contact with Microsoft evangelist and technology experts (MVP, Trainer, etc. …). The Turin event will allow the attendees to choose among Windows Azure, Windows Phone and Windows 8 and it has been organized in collaboration with MIC and TTG - (Torino Technologies Group) a local developers community.

Yesterday Microsoft announced the availability of the second Windows Embedded Standard 8 community technology preview (CTP) at Computex.

On the 29^th of March 2012, Beppe ( eMVP from BEPS Engineering), supported by Arrow OCS and Microsoft Innovation Center (MIC), presented an Embedded Webinar on Windows Embedded POSReady 7. The webinar
