If you are targetting a Windows CE device (and not Windows Mobile), then each device has it's own specific SDK. If you are not using a device specific functionality, you create a C# for Windows CE 5.0 application and it will work on every Windows CE device that has the .Net component included in the image.
Don't mix Windows CE and Windows Mobile. Windows Mobile 5-6.5 is based on Windows CE 5.0, but has a standard SDK (different SDK's for different versions of the Windows Mobile at use). Windows CE, as I mentioned, is used in specific solutions and you should get the SDK form the OEM.
