[Q] Upgrade our WM application - Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General

Hello,
We started our project 3 years ago. Right now we are using .NET Compact Framework 2.0 on WM6. It's not good enough anymore, and we considering to upgrade our application.
We still want to use WM and .NET , but We didn't follow its development over the years.
What is the best offer today? which OS to use? what version of .NET we need today for developing on WM?
Thanks,
idan.

If it's any help to you all i know is I'm using WM 6.5.3 and have .net 3.5 installed

Do we have .NET CF 3.7? Can you point to the link please?
@idanshabi:
You may consider WP7 for your development. But if you really want to go for WM 6.5 then 6.5.3 is the target.
Cheers!!!

I thought about it, but I think WP7 don't support enterprise, doesn't it?

I am not 100% sure of what features you are looking at the enterprise support... but a quick google gave me these:

What are you gonna do with your broken device, man?
i try to make one from Hermes.
But it can't boot with a white screen
But i can't make XIP.bin any one can help me?
there is very educational thread in Development and hacking section - G'relloc and other tools, i advise you to read it.
I assume you are half way in porting the rom, use current BA kitchens to port to BA, you can use my latest rom as base and use its xip, this way it will boot

Is this really 6.1? I thought they are releasing it on 29th... its only 28th today....
I am confused.... early on schedule?
well it is 6.1 for sure, but i am doubting the build of the core and os .... i am comparing it now with other builds.
I will wait a few days before i cook it into rom

Many, many thanks.
Downloaded, flashed, rebooted.
Looks good. About core and os builds - let's wait for xplode's verdict.
there is zoom in internet explorer and threading of SMSes (as told here)
what i hate in this build is the smart dialling and video call components which are useless in BA, also the ramdisk slows the device a lot, thats why i don't include it in any of my roms.... there are few more tricks to create a fast rom but ... you will see them soon

6.5 on this phone .....?
I'll believe it when I see it!
I am more optmistic
But WM 6.5 is rather large ROM, so Typhoon may be a bit difficult..
I think it's not. Don't forget that for Typhoon can use 39M SPL, storage is only 17MB, but ROM is larger.
Any news?

Please do continue. I would be happy to test it on my C500.
It can eliminate many programs installed and before it could gain more space.
Please test my first build of wm6.5. Download here.

Thanks Aleut, great job !!!
My opinion is 6.5 for devices with 64+ mb ram Who wants to test new visual effects of wm6.5, download and install WM6.5MenuStyle.zip.
Nice ROM, fast internet connection,thanks aleut

I doubt there's much software out there that requires 3.7 yet, but these things are generally good at being backward compatible, so I can't see any reason not to use the newer version.
Sorry to ask the obvious but where do I download 3.7 from as I can't seem to find the link.
Thanks in advance for your help.

http://tiltmobility.com/net-cf-37-available/
I tried both and the original one provided for the GPSDash2 software, but none work. And yes, I activated the dword in the registry each time.
Any ideas?
i remember somewhere here on XDA that 3.7 has no DirectX ?
any knowledgeable chefs or people familiar with .NET CF wanna chime in?
