I think it needs to be formatted FAT32. Give that a try.

i bet you it has something to do with licensing with the NTFS format, but that is just a guess.

NTFS is Microsoft's format, and Windows CE is a Microsoft product, so licensing is not the issue. The fact that WinCE simply does not support NTFS, for many a reason, is.
