New SQL Server Compact edition

Does the new SQL server Compact edition RC1 (release in Dec 2006) replace the Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Mobile Edition Device SDK?

OR is this an additional database for specific requirements.

Currently developing against MS SQL Server 2005 Mobile Edition Device SDK;; if I switch to the Compact edition; is there a migration wiarzrd or Upgrade wizard available?

Basically, that's what I describe in my new EBook. The SQL Server 2005 Compact Edition is a replacement for (an upgrade to) for SQL Mobile. The database structures are the same so there is no need for a conversion wizard or somesuch. The real difference here is that SQLCe is tuned and licensed to run on a Windows Desktop as well where as before it was only licensed for the Tablet PC and PDAs (Windows Mobile OS).
