Hallo,

My name is Daniel and I am complety new to this forum ;-)

Nowadays I am a delphi programmer. I have programming in Delphi for 5
years. Nowadays my company want to work with Pocket PC. So here are
some my questions. Don't be angry with me, I am not expierience C#
programmer, but I think that I can do it ;-)

Here are my quesions,some most of them are very simple:

1. ADO.Net 2.0 is greate, but what about the speed of C# 2.0 at all. I
feel that the first form always start very slowly. any suggestions? I
test my small application on Asus 636N (WM 5.0).

2. What is the most important factor in speed of application? Answers
for DataBase or just forms? In Delphi the answer from DB is always the
most important.

3. It there anybody who previously write DB Application in Delphi? Any
suggestions? I always like to "hear" older brothers ;-)

4. What about redistribiution of C# application written for Pocket PC.
I have a VS2005 Standard, can I redistribute my NET Runtime with my
Application?

5. NET Rutime is relativly huge file, about 24.5MB. My Pocket has about
65MB. I am afraid, of the size? How much memory really needs NET 2.0
platform to work correctly? That's disturb me very much.

Regards,

New C# user ;-)

2. I/O is almost always going to be the bounding item, unless you're going
floating point math or something. Even a low-power 400 MHz processor is a
lot faster than your network connection to the database.

4. Yes, I believe so. You'll have to read the license agreement, however.
You won't get legal advice here.

5. You aren't going to be using the .NET run-time. You're going to be using
the .NET Compact Framework run-time. The total size is around 9MB. Your
Windows Mobile 5 Pocket PC has enough resources, if you haven't already
installed many applications or used large local databases, to run most .NET
CF 2.0 applications.
