Adding a Non-Modal Splash Screen to your .NET Compact Framework Application

A few weeks ago, Anthony Wong posted an excellent entry on adding a modal splash screen to your .NET Compact Framework application.  His post started me wondering about how to create a non-modal splash screen.  Why a non-modal splash screen?  By making the splash screen non-modal, the application's main form can perform initialization work while the splash form is displayed.  Once initialization is complete, the main form will close the splash screen form.
