Hi!

I have been developing in .NET for quite some time now. But now I have customer who wants me to develop an application for them in .NET for Windows CE.

I have done some embedded system programming in C before, but never in .NET.

Please share any tips or tricks that would make my life easier when taking this assignment, or perhaps knowledge about any pitfalls to watch out for.
