Clarify the name changes on all SQL Server 2005 CE RC1 pages and give installion help for mo

Please add some more substantial needed info in ALL the web pages of "SQL Server 2005 Compact Edition RC1, Release Candidate 1", like at:

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/920700

for:
1) Clarifying the confusing name changes of the Mobile Edition to Everywhere Edition then to CE,
2) Giving installion instructions of the RC1 for mobile devices

Thanks,
Alpoge

I can address 1):

Microsoft first started using the name "Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Everywhere Edition" during the alpha and early beta tests. Once Microsoft branding and their legal team completed their work (and negotiations with Sybase) they decided to change the name to "Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Compact Edition". This name change is being propagated into Visual Studio 2005 and SQL Server Management Studio as well as into the OLE DB drivers and .NET providers (as described in my Ebook). Last news in this regard says that the changes will be first seen in January sometime. Since the SqlCe namespace is unchanged, your source code should not have to change.

2) I don't work with Mobile devices, but as I understand it, there is no change in how it's deployed to these devices.
