Does anyone know if it is possible to use balloon-tips in compactFramework?

With a little bit of interop you can implement tooltips:-

Also it is possible to add tooltips to the Toolbar control like this:-

You may consider SHNotificationAdd function, see:

Dear Stian,

Yes. It's possible.
We can create a Notification object which uses the Pocket PC Notification
API.
Ex.
Dim n As New Notification
n.Add("A sample notification")

You have to call the Microsoft.ReportingServices.Interfaces reference
which is in the Microsoft.ReportingServices.Interfaces.dll
(NotificationOny.dll).

Thanks.

Also the Pocket PC Notification balloons in OpenNETCF.WindowsCE.Forms:-
