The Smart Device Framework helps developers bridge the very large API gap between the two frameworks by providing classes that replicate features found in the Full Framework yet omitted in the Compact Framework as well as adding controls and classes missing from both Frameworks.<br /><br />"Replacement classes to replicate desktop functionality include class libraries such as ThreadEx, MonitorEx, MarshalEx, and a full Configuration namespace. New libraries include IO.Serial.Port, RoundGauge, HTMLViewer, InkX, OwnerDrawnList and WAV audio, as well as Phone APIs for Pocket PC Phone Edition and Microsoft Smartphone."<br /><br />As a developer, I always complain about how limited the .NET CF is. Thanks to OpenNETCF.org I will be complaining less from now on. :-)

Robert over in the Windows Mobile Team Blog is talking about SmartList Control in this new framework release. This SmartList control enables the developers to implement a list control similar to the Contacts List control with smart filtering.

OpenNETCF folks have done a commendable job enhancing the .NET CF libraries. I am wondering if they have some free time, maybe they can add .NET support to this device...
