I am writing an application that will run on a PocketPC/CE device and wil need to communicate with a server, preferably using SSL. I have looked at the Sockets control, but it seems that thecompact framework is not supported. I haven't been able to find out a definite yes or no that isn't an old message.
So, are these controls supported in the compact framework environment? If not, any plans on implementing this?

Sorry, but no they are not. Currently we have no plans to add support for it either.

Ok, thanks for the response. I hope to write a non CF app that uses your controls in the future, either our web survey app or something new. Thanks.

Actually, I got ahead of myself. I could still use the Sockets control for the server piece, to handle the clients logging in, etc.
I would just need to use something different on the device within the compact framework, for the client-side of communications.
We have a similar CF client app that uses the basic .Net System.Net.Sockets.TcpClient to connect, I could just use that on this client and your control to handle the server duties.
Am I correct in thinking along these lines?

Yes, you are thinking correctly.
