"Migrating Applications to the .NET Compact Framework 2.0 and Windows Mobile 5.0"

Don Sorcinelli has a good article up on developer.com that goes over some important things to think about when looking at CF 2.0 and WM 5.0. 

Something he mentions in the "Screen Orientation-Awareness" section is the new AutoScroll property on on Forms (and other controls) in CFv2 and how you'll almost always want to set it to True in order to get basic compatibility with square & landscape form factors.  The catch is that you have to remember to always set it on each new form. 

Good news on that though... shortly after beta 2 shipped, the VSD team fixed the bug I filed on this - now the AutoScroll property defaults to True on new forms.  What this means to customers is that once the next drop of Whidbey goes out, most developers won't even notice that the legacy screen emulation mode is not supported for CF v2.
