i heard there was a version 3 out thats much better than version 2. Is this true and where can i download this from. Cant find it on microsoft site

Its .NETCF 3.5

Every Visual Studio 2008 Edition (starting Professional and higher) has it on board for it allows you to develop for mobile devices...

If you just want to enable you pda for application which use the framework, then just go here:
MS Download for .NETCF
and download the framework...

Installation is simple...
a) install the framework on your pc...
b) connect your pda via active sync or mobility center
--> it should be automatically installed on the device

hope, i could help

i did install it but now i am getting a ( storage memory is critically low ) error. Now the thing is it is low but im not trying to install it in storage memory im trying to store it on my mini 2gb card. I notice not to long ago when i tried installing opera on my card it said the samething. The crazy thing is i was able to install other things. I think some of the softwares look at your storage mem even when you try to install it on the card. Is there anyway pass this... is there just a dll file i can take from the files on my computer and upgrade my .net on the phone to 3.5 ????

you cannot store the .netcf on a memory card...
the framework is a system component which has to be installed on the device!
try uninstalling some other applications from the device to free some space if you really need the .netcf 3.5

but for the basics:
- what device do you own?
- which wm version? (installing .netcf 3.5 on a device running a version prior to wm5 does not make sense)
- how much free space do you actually have?

i have wm 5... a xv6700.... my thing is when i check memory in settings i have some space for " programs " and some for " storage " but for some reason when i try installing this thing it goes and look at storage and not programs.... how can i change that

ok, i finally got 3.5 on my phone but now the software ics control v.21 gives me a msg saying " fatal: nat driver not found ". Can anyone please help me
