SUMMARY

.NET Compact Framework is a subset of the .NET Framework, designed to support the resource-constrained Windows Phone and mobile and Compact 7 devices. The .NET CF class libraries contain some of the same class libraries from the .NET Framework with some libraries developed specifically to support mobile and Windows Embedded Compact devices.

Combining .NET Compact Framework, VS2008, and Windows Embedded Compact 7, you have an effective and developer-friendly environment to rapidly create smart, connected, and service-oriented applications to support a new generation of embedded devices based on the Windows Embedded Compact 7 OS.
