I need to write a simple app for a Symbol MC70 scanner

My device is loaded with: Microsoft Windows Mobile 6.1 Premium

I have VS 2010 Premium on my desktop. When installing the Window Mobile 6 SDK I get this error: enter image description here

I read this article: Windows Mobile 6 Standard SDK Refresh install issue on Visual Studio 2010 Professional Beta 2

But my question is really - What's the best way to go forward from here? Using WinForms I can knock this app out in 3 hours. I'm hoping I don't burn 3 days fooling around with SDK's etc. Does anyone know if there are any VS 2010 plugins for this? Would it be best to try and update the devise to Mobile 7 and use VS 2010?

Thanks so much for any help!!

The MC70 device does not support wm7 and vs2010 does not support wm6 development.

The only current solution I'm aware off is to develop with vs2008.

The only solution is to install Visual Studio 2008 Professional and create a WinForms Smat Device app.
