Provider factory for Mobile / Compact Framework

Hello,

I am about to write an app for Pocket PC 2003 / Windows CE / Mobile 5 (don't
know which yet) from which I need to query both SQL Server Express 2005 and
SQLCe. I would like to be able to use a provider factory to not have to
duplicate code.

ADO 2.0 has DbProviderFactory, but it is not available in the .NET Compact
framework. I could write my own provider factory "the old way" using
IDbConnection, etc., but I rather not reinvent that wheel.

Can anyone point me to source for a good data access provider factory (C #,
please) that works in .NET Compact framework?

Thanks,
Larry
