I am developing an application which needs to access webservice, which is
deployed in my pc's IIS.

Using emulator for WINCE, PocketPC and SmartPhone i am unable to connect to
the webservice.

The application returns an error message, "Unable to connect remote server".

How do i achieve this task.

Please reply asap. I have to demo the application in Imagine Cup 2005 Zonal
Finals and Windows Embedded Student Challenge.

You need to use IP address assigned to your PC -- the emulator is
essenitally a separate computer, so you can't use localhost (127.0.0.1) to
address the host PC -- you need to use the host PC's actual IP address or
host name, whatever, and the PC needs to be configured to make that
webservice visible to other PCs (authentication, etc.).
