I have seen that but not sure that it would sync with standard SQL Server like CE. does. One of the rumors implied that MS was aware that many WM business apps need CE and that something might come out after WM7 rush which is aimed at the consumer market. I can wait, but I'm sure glad my app was for my use and not clients. I really liked the HD2 (T-Mobile) when I played with it and HD3 is supposed to be WM7, but with out SQL CE not for me. My TouchPro 2 contract does not run out for another year so wait and see.
