SQL Desktop Engine

Question

Does anyone have experience using the MSDE (Microsoft SQL Desktop Engine) for desktop apps? I'm wanting to use this to store my data locally, sync up with a SQL2K server, and keep the same native .Net SQL interfaces rather than using ODBC classes. So I'm curious to hear if anyone has worked with this, and what you thought about it, especially the replication portion if it. thanks, -James PS: I know this post belongs in the ADO.NET forum, but since there are zero posts in there, I figured I'd have a better chance of a response here) :)
