I'm looking to have a button in my code which forces a
soft reset
i am not sure if this even possible and was wondering if
anyone out there has any input.
thanks
Ravi

Here is a sample how to do this from eVC++ for a PocketPC:
http://www.pocketpcdn.com/articles/softreset.html.
Since you are using the .NET CF you need to P/Invoke KernelIOControl or use
the OpenNETCF WinAPI, see http://www.opennetcf.org/winapi.asp.
I am not sure if this works for any Windows CE device, but you could give it
a try.

In your managed application you can define IOCTL_HAL_REBOOT as follows:

const Int32 METHOD_BUFFERED = 0;
const Int32 FILE_ANY_ACCESS = 0;

const Int32 FILE_DEVICE_HAL = 0x00000101;

Int32 IOCTL_HAL_REBOOT = ((FILE_DEVICE_HAL) << 16) |
((FILE_ANY_ACCESS) << 14) | ((15) << 2) | (METHOD_BUFFERED);
