Are there any books around focusing explicitly on .NET CF 2.0 ?
Or are there any books anounced that will be released soon ?
 
I haven't found any that are available right now. There is a book with a
proposed published date of June 30, 2006 called Programming the .Net Compact
Framework by Wei Meng Lee and Brian Jepson. It was originally supposed to be
released during 2004 but I guess they decided to rewrite it once it was
learned 2.0 would be coming out.

There is another book called Mobile Enterprise Development with Visual
Studio 2005 due out in October 2006.

These are the only 2 I have found so far.
 
MS .Net Compact FW, Core Reference, Wigley & Wheelwright is an excellent
resource (must have) for CF 1. It is extremely authoritive on what can and
can't be done in CF1, esp. in comparison to full FW.

I hope they do an updated version soon with the same authority for CF2.

In the meantime I will continue to refer to it then try find the differences
with CF2.

Here is another vote for what David Jones said. I too really like the core
reference he refers to and would like to see it in a second edition with
comprehensive coverage of CF2.0.
