I am putting together a localized web app that eventually has to be on
mobile devices. To accommodate both, I am using external resource assemblies
for elements that will appear in both. Enough background.

My question is whether or not there is a localized example, article,
tutorial, etc., anywhere that might stop me from hitting any major pitfalls.
TIA.

What you are asking really is, what are the differences between NETCF and FF
with regard to localisation, right?

No custom cultures, cannot change culture per thread, if the locale is not
on the device then you cannot display that language. So based on your
original description, no show stoppers for you. I am assuming you are using
v2.0 because in v1.0 the resx format was different so you would have to take
that into account...

I haven't got links to any good samples (although chapter 16 of the upcoming
"Mobile Development Handbook" covers this topic) and I did write a couple of
blog entries for v1.0 that somewhat apply today:
