I think that's going to be difficult. Unlike Windows XP, Windows CE is not
*an* operating system. It's a set of components which can be mixed and
matched to create an operating system specifically tailored for a given set
of hardware, which might have a display, networking, disk, etc. or might
have *none* of those items. Since CE is not written to run on top of some
standardized hardware, like a PC, as XP is, the OEM for the hardware is
substantially responsible for the quality of the finished operating system.
I suppose that Microsoft might be able to certify that certain board support
packages, in combination with certain OS components, were tested,
maintained, etc. according to that spec., but I don't think there's any way
for a blanket statement to be made. You might find a device vendor who
would certify it, in some way or another, but, again, it's not up to just
one organization.

sI am looking at using Windows CE 5.0 in a non-mission critical military
application. My customer has concerns in regards to the robustness of
Windows CE 5.0 in such an environment. Can anyone tell me were can I find
hard evidence of Windows CE 5.0 OS certification compliance (such as
MIL-STD-882D and other related IEEE standards) and the verification and
validation testing regime that the Windows CE 5.0 OS has been through,
particularly in regards to military use?
