I wanted to program an application for my windows mobile phone and was wondering what sort of sdk and api's I might need to be able to do this. I know that the new windows mobile supports .NET and that there is a seperate SDK or maybe just an API, but I have never actually done this before and was hoping someone else had so that I knew for sure everything that I would need to make it work. Thanks in advance for any info.

The next question I really have is weather or not there is a different event for touch pad touches then there is for a regular mouse click? If so what is the class that I should be looking into to find the event? I have been looking around the new stuff included in the Win Mobile 6 SDK's but haven't found it yet.

I believe they are the same event as Windows Mobile sees your finger as the mouse.

Cool...That will save me some work as I have already programmed those out. I hear Win mobile 7 will support multitouch like the iphone:) I wonder what they will do for those events? Any how; thanks again for the info.

I haven't heard that and I'm not sure I know what it is. I thought the iPhone and iPod Touch worked off of heat rather than location?

Multi touch reffers to the abiltiy to touch in two places at once and get different results than a single touch...The zoom on the iphone is a good example. It would be usefull, or at least fun to play around with.
The next item that I seem to need some assistance with is adjusting the program for the resolution of the current Win mobile phone. There are several templates to start out with, and those are great, but It would be nice to be able to adjust the position of the program's elements dynamically simply by detecting the devices resolution. Is there a method for determining what the resolution of the device is?
