Application Data Path on SmartPhones

You can Platform Invoke the Windows CE API SHGetSpecialFolderLocation with CSIDL_APPDATA (26) as parameter to retrieve the application data path.
RAM is erased when a Smartphone is switched off. This means that application data has to be put in the \Storage folder. The \Storage folder is persisted to flash memory. For more information, see "Storing Data" in the Smartphone Guide found in the Smartphone 2003 SDK.
