Does a Windows Embedded device require product activation by the end user, like my desktop OS?

No, the customer is not involved in the OS installation process, which makes for a faster and less expensive deployment process. Instead a product key is entered into Target Designer (for Windows XP Embedded) or Platform Builder (for Windows CE) when the image is being built.
