I spent some time with my team today investigating if there was a way we could get Gearsto work on the HTC Snap we have in the office. The geolocation call in Gears fails using IEMobile and there is very little chance that a solution will be forthcoming since Google has publicly announcedthat they won’t be putting any more development effort into Gears.
The other option we looked at was Opera Mobile since we know that Opera Mobile supports the Gears calls we use. Unfortunately that door has also slammed shut since Opera Mobile does not run on Windows Mobile Standard 6.5!!! So unfortunately we won’t be able to produce a FieldMetrix mobile web client for Windows Mobile Standard 6.5. It’s pity since the HTC Snap is a beautiful device, it’s very fast and the screen resolution is very crisp and bright.
