The new low-end addition to Microsoft's Windows Embedded family targets very small embedded devices, like the SPOT watch shown here.
Over at MSDN's on10.net, you'll find a video of senior Windows Embedded product manager Mike Hall giving a quick demo of building a .NET MF project using Visual Studio 2005. Hall demonstrates both the emulator built into Visual Studio 2005 and real hardware in the form of a reference design from Freescale. The application is a quick and dirty implementation of Space Invaders, which Hall says he wrote on a recent flight from Seattle to Germany.

Next, -- or perhaps while you're waiting for on10.net to load the above video -- you might check out this entertaining, if not overly informative, YouTube video about the .NET MF from MSN Direct. It portrays a day in the life of "the well-connected mobile professional," and shows off a number of .NET MF gadgets, including the
Melita coffee maker that reports the weather while it brews a pot of joe.
