v1 and v2 can run side-by-side as you can see with the VS2005 tools. No
devices have v2 built in, but all Pocket PC 2003 and later will have a
version of v1, either the original RTM release (1.0.2268.0) or a more recent
service pack. Note that if you are redistributing the .NETCF runtimes, you
should use the latest available version (SP3) as the RTM release is now
rather dated and there have been numerous bug fixes and performance tweaks
since.
