SQL Server 2008 to SQL Server Compact Edition?

问题:

I have some questions about SQL Server Compact Edition.

Now we are using SQL Server 2008 and developing in Visual Studio 2008 C#.net and linq for connect database.

My questions are:

1. Is it possible to change our database to SQL Server Compact Edition?
2. What is the differece between both of this?
3. Is there any limitions when using SQL Server CE, for eg. database size, data size?
4. Can CE version support all data type from SQL Server 2008?

best regards,

Indi
