Depends on the phone.

Most phones use some form of Java 2 Micro Edition (J2ME) for third-party software. Symbian/Series 60 phones also support C++ development I believe, but it may be necessary to get the software certified to get it onto end-users' phones. Normally the J2ME environment is more limited in what you can do (for example, it may not be possible to do image capture from the camera).

On Windows Mobile phones (Smartphone or Pocket PC Phone Edition) you can use either C++, or VB.NET or C# with the .NET Compact Framework. The latest .NET Compact Framework version is v2.0, but Windows Mobile 5.0 and earlier ship with CF 1.0 in ROM. WM 5.0 has SP3 in ROM, older devices will have older versions. Don't bother with CF 1.0 before SP2, it was very buggy, so if your customers will be using Windows Mobile 2003 phones, they will need to upgrade the Compact Framework.

The VB.NET language is the same on both desktop and Compact Framework, but the Framework is significantly cut down. In places where the desktop Framework has multiple ways of doing things, Compact Framework only has one. Also, a lot of overloads have been removed and operations that do more in one call have been removed, in favour of the simpler operations (example: Graphics.DrawLines was not present in CF 1.0).

Stability. What an interesting concept. -- Chris Maunder
