Can we develop mobile applications using .NET? Which mobiles are supported? Are those applications supported on all mobiles, or any particular mobiles?
Consider writing a web application that exposes views/pages specifically designed for mobile clients.
You could write your application in ASP.NET webforms or MVC, and programatically detect which page/view to best serve to that client.
For some idea on how to make that application look, see Scott Hanselman’s 2008 post on the Best Mobile Websites.
Recommended as well to listen to Scott’s podcast on ASP.NET and the Mobile Web. They focus their discussion on the Mobile Device Browser File – definitions for individual mobile devices and browsers. At run time, ASP.NET uses the information in the request header to determine what type of device/browser has made the request.

Currently, Windows Phone 7 can be developed with Silverlight/XAML with Visual Studio.
