    I know they have a "Compact" framework. If you target that you should be able to write programs for any devices that support the .NET Compact framework.

    There are two big projects to get .NET on the Linux platform. Mono and DotGNU.

    Both have C# compilers and a limited CLR. I haven't heard anything about the mac. But if OS X is truely a linux kernal like I hear, than Mono or DotGNU should run on them (right?)

    OSX is based upon FreeBSD, although it is fairly heavily modified. Linux applications won't run on it.
