I was playing around with the compact framework for PDA programming, and found some problems. The set of features included in the compact framework is a little odd. Most notably, you can't change the colors of buttons. Since PDA's are basically touch screen devices, being able to change the backcolor of buttons is a pretty valuable means of supplying user feedback. You can do it with eVB, you can do it with eVC++, but you can't do it directly with .NET.

Therefore, my question is: Can anybody point me towards a reference for API for PDA that would allow me to overcome this limitation in the .NET compact framework.
