CF Tutorials

Since mobile devices are becoming incredibly popular why not have a set of sticky tutorials? I'm sure that after a few comprehensive tutorials have been written the majority of possible threads would be catered for.

Myself, I've only just started developing for mobile devices (started about three hours ago to be exact ) and have determined that decent tutorials are hard to find.

Some of the topics that could be covered are:
Memory management
Proper UI design (factoring in the different possible resolutions, screen real estate, etc)
Components and controls
Deployment

Those kinds of things. I am willing to contribute to these tutorials and even write a few myself. Anyways, I just thought I would make the suggestion because it would be really useful and we could all benefit from it

i found out that there is not much different coding in window (using .net framewaork) and mobile window (using .net compact framework). Just some of the device controls cannot found and use in .net compact framework like calendar and combobox (not allow to enter).

Ja, in actual code there is not all that much difference, but there is a HUGE amount of things which need to be considered when deisgning for a pda or smartphone! At the moment myself and a huge number of people at my university are really getting involved in mobile and wireless techs, and so is pretty much every university world wide. There is so much that needs to be considered in terms of UI, memory and stuff like that.
