On Pocket PC this is enforced automatically to comply with design
guidelines, however on generic CE.NET devices you must implement this
yourself. There is a thread in the OpenNETCF forums which describes using a
Mutex to enforce a single application instance.

Since the forms used in .NET CF applications are classes, you could use a
singleton design pattern to ensure only one instance of the main form.
