  Take a look at http://www.opennetcf.org/CategoryView.aspx category=Home it provides a framework round the CF, which extends alot of controls (like buttons, labels, listboxes, pictureboxes)

  very nice,

  Well, you might consider using a picture box instead of a button and coding the click event. That way you can make the "button" as colorful as you want without introducing any reliance on 3rd party tools. This is what we used on our first release in 2003 but with the evolution of pda's we have found the picture idea is not the best use of space and ui for our users. We originally went with picture boxes on the form, then we used smaller images on the toolbar and we eventually settled on using the keypad because it allowed users to operate the menus according to the method they felt most comfortable and did not force them to use a stylus.

  I'm not sure what buttons you are planning on using, but if you are building the app for a wm 5.0 device, you may want to consider using the menu instead of putting buttons on the forms. The reason is because this allows you to operate the pda without a stylus (very important for devices that have slide out keypads like the Verizon XV6700 or Cingular 8125). You don't want to have your users typing on the keypad and then force them to use the stylus to tap a button. Using the menu allows both stylus and keypad selection of menus.
