System.Text.Encoding.GetEncoding(“iso-8859-1”) throws PlatformNotSupportedException?

Question

See subject, note that this question only applies to the .NET compact framework. This happens on the emulators that ship with Windows Mobile 6 Professional

Answer 1

System.Text.Encoding.GetEncoding(1252)
