Can I use Visual Studio 2005 (VB.NET) develop WAP site?

I cannot see the mobile control or any template like a Visual Studio.NET.

I believe the native asp.net controls support mobile devices out of the box
-- based on information on the connecting device (derived from the request)
asp.net renders the controls differently for mobile devices than it does
for PCs
 
That was on beta 1 stage. You just create the web site / application
normally but then on add New Item you add Mobile Web Form instead of Web
Form. That makes the difference so that you have different set of controls
at your disposal. E.g there are seperate mobile controls in ASP.NET 2.0.

If you use Web Application project options see:
