UPDATE Chris SET FirstMultiThreadedNetworkComponentCompleted = 1

I recently completed my first multi-threaded network component.  I'm not positive at this point that I necessarily used all the best practices, but it was fun, and a great learning experience besides.

It looks like I'll be moving on to the Compact .NET Framework soon. Does anyone have any suggestions as to where I could start looking to get acclimated to development methodologies and standards for the hand-held market?

Finally, I'm looking for an inexpensive and easy-to-use data-modeling program.  I have Visio, but it doesn't display the various types of relationships (one-to-many, one-to-one, etc.)--just a generic arrow; which could mean anything.

UPDATE per Jeff Bollinger

Visio can display cardinality and crows feet, by changing the settings. Go to Database -> Options -> Document -> Relationship.

There's a fair amount in Visio that I thought should be standard, but you actually need to configure. Relationships (cardinality, crows feet, etc.) as well as displaying data types. In the same place to configure crows feet, you can select whether you want to show physical, portable or both data types. I always choose physical, but I thought that any ERD should, by default, display crows feet and data types.
