I am currently looking into developing a Windows Mobile app to extend my current web application. The app will theoretically utilize the following technologies. However, I am not sure if all the components will work together as this is new territory for me.

- MS .Net compact framework 2.0
- NHibernate
- SQL Server CE
- Web Services (utilizing XmlSerializer)
- Targeting Windows Mobile 5.0 devices

I have a Java based mobile app which works but doesn't use Hibernate currently. Objects are serialized via Castor to data files on the mobile device.

So my questions to this group are:
- will NHibernate be able to be used in this technology mix?
- any gotchas that I should be aware of with NHibernate as I am intimately aware of Hibernate 3.0
- will there be issues with .Net CF XmlSerializer with NHibernate? I had problems with Castor and Hibernate but worked around the intricacies.

Thanks in advance as any help would be appreciated.

I don't expect that NHibernate will run on the .NET CF 2.0. There are lots of things not supported on the CF, the most irritating being certain Framework method overloads that don't exist in the CF.
