OpenNETCF: ConnectionManager.Connect

Anyone know why the ConnectionManager.Connect method makes the
connection exclusive? In my testing, I've found that it's *much* more
error prone that way. In particular, if it's a GPRS connection and it
gets dropped during use (loss of signal and hibernation being the
normal reasons) you can't regain the connection without turning the
phone off and on again, as far as I can see - it's as if something
thinks the connection is still there, but it's not usable.

Since making the connection non-exclusive (in my own copy of the source
code) I haven't seen any connection problems.
 
Sounds like a perfect case for a submission. :)

In fact you do enough work on these, if you'd like to become a developer
with access to checkout/in source, contact me:

I thought I'd ask on the newsgroup first to see if there was any actual
reason for it. I'll send a submission now.

Not just yet - I think I'll stay as a "one line suggester" for the
moment. Maybe some day though :)
