I think you mis-understood...
The think I wish to do is: ACCESSING a Postgres/PostGIS database.
PDAs and Pocket PCs run .NET CF but npgslq Provider doesn't support this
platform.
Anybody already considered (or even implemented) the following
option?: wrapping npgslq in a .NET Web Service; adding this as a Web
Service Reference in the .NET CF application.
Or should I just use a plain ADO.NET interface? Is this possible?
Or would you suggest using JDBC?
Thanks for replyíng y'all!
Rob

Not doing it? All due respect but PostgreSQL+PostGIS is a very heavy
solution for a very light device ;)
