We have several dozen Windows Mobile 5.0 devices (Symbol MC7095 handhelds equipped with embedded Verizon WLAN, if that matters) that all need the same software and configuration. We connect all of these devices via a USB cradle to add software to them via Microsoft ActiveSync, and then do several configuration changes directly on the handhelds themselves, in the OS. That process takes 30 minutes or more, per device.

Is there any way to set up one device and take a 'disk image' of the entire OS/software, such that things could then be copied (quickly/easily) to the other devices? Is such a thing possible, with Windows Mobile devices?

Windows Mobile has nothing to do with computers, XDA Developers and Stack Overflow are your best bets... – Tom Wijsman Sep 18 '11 at 23:07

There are things specific to the device. I have come close with Windows Explorer but it's not worth the effort since much better tools are avaialable.

Check into tools such as MSP (Mobility Services Platform from Motorola) or SOTI (http://www.soti.net).
