dotnet compact framework : Add Certificate Root

Is there are way to add a certificate root via the .NET Compact
Framework?

I have an application running on a Windows Mobile PocketPC 2003
device. It needs to talk to a Web Service that I have also built.
The web service is using SSL with a certificate issued by Go Daddy.
The Go Daddy root certificate is not recognized by the PoketPC. I
have found the SmartPhoneAddCert (SpAddCert.exe) example from
Microsoft, but I would like to be able to add the root cert from my
application (so that the end user does not need to go through all the
extra steps).

I cannot find a way to do this via the .NET Compact Framework.

Thank You,
kjhealey

See if this helps: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms894883.aspx
(should work on older devices)
