Is it possible to use OData with Visual Studio 2005 and .NET framework 2.0 ?

+3  A: 

Short answer: No.

Longer answer: Since OData is an open protocol, not a piece of software, technically you can use .NET Framework 2.0 to implement it. However, to use the pre-supplied libraries from Microsoft, you will need .NET 3.5 SP1 and above.

It's sad that you can find implementations for PHP, Java, Objective C... and for the .net framework only available for 3.5 or above,there is still a lot of legacy app's that are still sticked to the 2.0 version of the framework, in some cases this can be a showstopper.
