Q: 

Is there any FREE ORM for .NET Compact Framework (Windows Mobile 6.1, SQLServerCE) ?

Looks like I found a good commercial variant, but I'm looking exactly for Free one. Does someone know some?

+1  A: 

I am currently looking for a free .net ORM for use on Windows CE. So far I have found these commerical options:

NHibernate sadly is not an option because it uses features that are not available in the Compact Framework (e.g. reflection related functionality).

If using a SQL database as your underlying data store is not absolutely necessary then Karvonite is worth consideration. It is a free (Ms-PL) object persistence framework compatable with the .net Compact Framework. Do you need to use SQL Server Compact or are you really just wanting an easy way to persist your domain?

I will update you if I find more options.
