.NET cf versions

A lot of the new features in .NET cf 2.0 look pretty interesting. So when this comes out, I'll jump all over it and use all those awesome features.

The problem is this. I get all excited when I see these new devices coming out with the compact framework embedded in them. They (MS, hardware vendors) always point out how good this is because you don't take the > 1MB hit when deploying your app (the device has already been hit). But will that device with the compact framework be able to have the framework upgraded? If not, we're back to hitting the user with >1 MB of dependencies for my app. If it can be upgraded, I bet the user has to at least do a hard reset.
