most popular one is the MicroSoft.Windows.Mobile.State.this is one have more than 100+ properties for Windows Mobile devices.You can download it's freely from here http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=83A52AF2-F524-4EC5-9155-717CBE5D25ED&displaylang=en
after installed SDK, create a new project with Windows Mobile 5.0 SDK Pocket PC, like this and give any name to your project.
before write code we want to add windows mobile dll to project as references, so select Reference menu in your Project and go to .net tab(default), there can u see 5 dll like start name Microsoft windows mobile... Please select M.W.M and M.W.M.State and give ok, after return to your code window.
Note(M.W.M -Microsoft.windows.mobile)
write code like following code snippet. or copy and paste and change namespace to your project name
