Any Windows CE devices that can replace PLCs?

Does anyone know if there are any companies producing stand-alone
Windows CE based "controllers" used for industrial applications? More
specifically, what I am looking for is a unit that contains the Windows
CE OS with possible support for CE .NET and the following:
* analog / digital inputs / outputs
* a display (at the minimum, a simple one line text display)
* a keybord input panel (not a computer keyboard)
* the ability to add expansion modules (more inputs/outputs and other
types of modules)
The unit must be rugged and designed for industrial purposes and should
be able to fit into some kind of rack or be designed to fit into a
panel cutout.. What I am looking for is something that could
potentially replace a PLC (programmable logic controller). Programming
in Visual Studio .NET in a language like C# or Visual Basic .NET is a
powerful solution that goes beyond typical ladder logic programming.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thank you
Johann Blake
