What version of Internet Explorer is built into Pocket PC 4.20 (build 14053)?

I'm trying to find the IE version that's on a mobile device with 'Pocket PC 4.20' (shown on the About screen).

Also what's the official brand of this OS, is it 'Pocket PC 2002' or 'Windows Mobile 2003'?

I was hoping to get jQuery Mobile running on it but it doesn't seem to work, nor does the standard jQuery library.

The user-agent sent by the browser is IE 4.01

Solution

  • Almost certainly equivalent to IE6. Certainly nothing newer, but could even be older. I wouldn't rule out either IE5.5 or 5.0.

    You might get some clues by examining the UserAgent string in your server logs.
