    Hi Sara,

    You don't really need to know what update you have installed
    on your server. The device updates are cumulative - if you
    install Device Update 4 you will be completely up to date.

    Here is the current list of supported devices:
    http://www.asp.net/mobile/testeddevices.aspx?tabindex=6

    Here is a great resource for creating custom filters & controls:
    http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en-us/mwsdk/html/mworiMobileCapabilities.asp

    You may also want to look at this article on Device Profiling:
    http://www.asp.net/mobile/profile/help.htm

    .NET Mobile will generate WML for WAP enabled devices
    as long as it can recognize the device. No word yet on when
    MS will release DU5.

    Thanks,
