Only that:
What is the best to do it?
I'm using C#, .Net Compact Framework 2.0 SP2, and Windows Mobile 5.0 and above.
I'm trying with a winForm but it takes long time to show. I want a splash screen that appear immediately (or as fast as possible).
Thank you!

The problem you have to overcome is that the CLR has to be JITTed at the start. You can use a managed Form for your splash screen but you have to pay the CLR JIT price before anything can be displayed, which can be a few seconds on many devices. The best *from a perf standpoint) mechanism is to have a separate native app that shows the splash screen and in turn launches the managed app.
