cross platform .net development
A couple of good postings on developing applications for the compact framework and the full framework

Swoosh! uses the same "business logic" dll (exact same binary) and then different exe UIs (one compact framework and several full framework) on top of that. I definitely agree that in general it isn't worth it to use the same exe. Who wants a Pocket PC UI on a 17" monitor? I had heard of the conditional compilation constant approach before but wasn't comfortable enough to use it at the time I started Swoosh!. This article lays out more of how to set things up. I think if I had done it that way, it would have saved a lot of time copy and pasting stuff back and forth.
