On Compact Framework you have to read the config file on your own class of WebService:

public partial class YourService : System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapHttpClientProtocol {

    /// 
    public HandTerminalService() {
        string appSettings = string.Concat(Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().GetName().CodeBase, ".config");
        XmlDocument xmlDocument = new XmlDocument();
        xmlDocument.Load(appSettings);
        XmlNode xmlNode = xmlDocument.SelectSingleNode("//configuration/appSettings/add[@key = 'Proxy.YourServiceService']");
        if (xmlNode.Attributes["value"].Value != null)
        {
            this.Url = string.Concat(xmlNode.Attributes["value"].Value, "");
        } else
        {
            this.Url = "http://:/YourService.asmx";
        }
    }
